This paper provides a first study into the complex setting of Emergency Medical Dispatch (EMD), through a textual trajectory lens. We draw on ongoing research on risk negotiation in emergency decision making and we unpack the process by which texts are produced and co-produced in the daily practice of multiprofessional teams making time sensitive, high-stakes decisions. We introduce an Interactional Sociolinguistic (IS) model, P.A.T.H.S. (standin…
