This training provides essential training for the non-mental health professional,
and is recognized by the International Critical Incidence Stress Foundation
(ICISF). Crisis intervention, sometimes called “emotional first-aid”, is
conducted individually (one-on-one) or in groups. This training is designed to
teach participants the fundamentals and specific protocols for individual
intervention.
A variety of topics and discussions relevant to the issues
that put individuals at
risk and in crisis today are included. Training modules will cover: the concept
of Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM), understanding CISM, basic terms
and concepts relevant to the study of crisis, traumatic stress, and crisis
intervention; differential utilities, psychological reactions to crisis and
trauma, reintegrating returning veterans, psychological conditions, the SAFER
protocol, human resources (HR), and supervisory post-incident issues.
