Summary: The tradition in emergency services has been to largely ignore mental health. This has never, nor will it ever, work. Recently there has been increased awareness of burnout, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and first responder suicide. Unfortunately awareness is not enough. Dramatic videos sharing war stories do not offer solutions for these problems. This book is designed to guide the audience towards solutions.
Have a plan -- Educate, educate, educate! -- Triage and intervene- but do it right! -- PTSD: we fight this together -- First responder suicide -- Resilience -- Clinicians: know your audience -- Public safety therapy -- Peer support -- Service dogs and equine therapy.
