Course Description:

Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM)-Assisting Individuals in Crisis

This course is for the following Healthcare Coalition Partners: EMS, Emergency Management, Hospital Personnel, and Public Health

This 2-day course provideds a basic foundation  for Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM), a process created to equip participants in providing basic, initial care for people who have experienced a critical incident. It is a form of “psychological or emotional first aid” designed to begin the process of helping individuals, on a one-on-one basis, cope better with these incidents. Crisis Intervention is NOT psychotherapy or a substitute for psychotherapy, but rather a specialized, acute, emergency mental health intervention that follows specific protocols and requires specialized training.
