Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM+)
Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM+) is designed to address the immediate psychological needs of individuals exposed to a critical incident or a traumatic event. The primary goal of CISM+ is to help individuals cope with the emotional impact of the incident, prevent the development of long-term psychological issues, and facilitate the return to a functional and healthy state. Through this course, you’ll be equipped with crisis intervention techniques and coping mechanisms to assist and minister to those who have experienced trauma. This 1- 1/2 day course consists of instruction followed by a simulation where you can put your new skills into practice.
