Under capitalism, a lot of the time, highly dangerous jobs are also highly paid. Kind of a balance that the individual decides to engage with. Same idea behind getting an advanced degree in STEM or law. I think of my job by example, I’m a power plant operator at a large combined cycle plant. No fucking shot I’d be doing this if the pay wasn’t good. I’m around explosive and deadly hot shit all day.
I happen to find working with patients at high risk of violent behaviors to be fulfilling. That said I think if people were less worried about what immediate benefit my patients have to society (as opposed to the fact that they could slip in the shower and get a TBI and be that person in under a month and would want someone to care for them too) I would probably be allocated more resources to do my job a lot more safely.
I did that when I was young, troubled teens. Horrifically difficult gig with a disgustingly low level of pay.
