Thought Bias with Dr. Ryan Pursley

Thought biases, also known as cognitive biases, refer to systematic errors in thinking that can influence our decision-making processes and judgments. Understanding these biases is essential for EMS professionals as it helps in recognizing and mitigating potential errors in critical situations. Understanding these biases can help EMS professionals be more aware of their own thinking processes and make more informed decisions. By continuously learning about thought biases and engaging in critical thinking exercises, EMS professionals can develop strategies to mitigate the impact of biases and improve patient care.
