- Community policy in Bavaria should reinforce the protection of emergency responders, such as paramedics, following the increasing violence towards them on rescue missions, like the recent incidents involving a relative's attack on paramedics in Brannenburg.
- To enhance public trust in emergency services and ensure the well-being of paramedics, the health-and-wellness aspect of the community policy could additionally incorporate vocational training to prepare paramedics for stressful, volatile situations they may encounter during their service in general-news or crime-and-justice scenarios, as demonstrated by the unrest surrounding the transport of a patient in Bad Feilnbach.
