  • 76% responded burnout is a critical issue
  • 59% do not have enough personnel to respond to 911 calls
  • 40-52% rarely/never get recommended amounts of exercise, sleep
  • 73% of respondents are not confident that their partner’s physical fitness level is adequate to keep them safe on the job
