Traumatic incident reduction and critical incident stress management : a synergistic approach / edited by Victor R. Volkman

Contributor(s): Publication details: Ann Arbor, MI : Loving Healing Press, c2007Description: xii, 144 pISBN:
  • 9781932690293
Subject(s): NLM classification:
  • WM 172.
Summary: From the Foreword: TIR offers an opportunity for the members of a CISM team to deal with any accumulated emotional baggage that their involvement in crisis-intervention has created. Training in TIR adds another tool to the toolkit of crisis-intervention techniques and enables peer-support to ad-dress an extended range of crisis-reactions, even those that might justify a clinical diagnosis. If virtually all the emotional reactions of a colleague in crisis could be ac-commodated and addressed through CISM and TIR, then the difference to the individual, the CISM team and the community would be immense. I look forward to the day that what practitioners of CISM and TIR already know is recognized in order for these approaches to be embraced and enjoyed more widely.
