Critical Incident Stress Management
Critical Incident Stress Management :
"Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) provides an organized approach to the management of stress responses for personnel having been exposed to a traumatic event in the line of duty. The use of CISM may decrease post-traumatic stress disorder, acute stress disorder, workman's compensation claims, fatalities, injuries, and suicide. The use of CISM does not prevent an employee from seeking individual consultation through the Employee Assistance Program or a trained Peer Supporter". (NIFC, Interagency Standards for Fire and Aviation Operations 2007 (Appendix Q, CISM), p. Q-1)
