Purpose: We aimed to identify the awareness and reporting obligation attitude toward child abuse among paramedic students who will become paramedics in the future and play an important role as those with an obligation to report child abuse. Methods: Data were collected from the paramedic students after consent to this study through online. The period of data collection was from July 10 to August 2, 2023 and 142 questionnaires were analyzed using SPSS 27.0 program. Results: 79.6% of the subjects knew who was required to report child abuse, but only 46.5% knew the reporting agency, and 30.3% knew the reporting procedure. Additionally, 83.8% were willing to report child abuse when discovered. Awareness of child abuse was 4.58±0.29 points out of 5. The reporting obligation attitude toward child abuse was 3.53±0.74 out of 5. Awareness of child abuse was determined by whether one was required to report child abuse (p<.05), whether one was aware of the reporting procedure (p<.05), and whether one was willing to report child abuse (p<.05), there appeared to be a significant difference. Attitude toward reporting obligation regarding child abuse was determined by gender (p<.05), whether one was aware of the obligation to report child abuse (p<.05), and willingness to report upon discovery of child abuse (p<.01), it was found that there was a significant difference. Conclusion: It is necessary to develop realistic educational content that can be linked to suspected abuse sites in hospitals and out of hospitals so that students who will become paramedics in the future can play an active role as mandatory reporters of child abuse.
