Emergency medicine in Slovenia is marking its 30th anniversary this year, an occasion that highlights the demanding yet rewarding nature of the field. Professionals working in this sector are described as individuals who embrace adrenaline, demonstrate sound decision-making under pressure, and possess a strong commitment to helping others. Dr.
Manca Mlakar, an emergency doctor, exemplifies this spirit, often maintaining a positive demeanor amidst the high-stress environment. Speaking during a dedicated week visiting colleagues at the World Studio, she reflected on the necessity of maintaining morale. She noted that while it can be difficult for some people to process hearing about an emergency, a sense of humor serves as a crucial emotional boost for her and her peers.
Dr. Mlakar stated that her professional experience has been confined to official duty; she has never been called to assist with medical issues when she was not on the clock, and her personal injuries have been minor. She emphasized that the ability to laugh, even when discussing intense medical scenarios, is vital for endurance.
According to her, this shared approach is essential for the team to remain resilient. For her, the passion for the work, combined with her colleagues, makes the commitment worthwhile.
