RESILIENCIA EN SALUD MENTAL
Much of the mental health aid to first responders has traditionally been applied after mental injury has already occurred, while little has been done to prevent the issues in the first place. Our Mental Health Resiliency Training course for first responders teaches practical strategies that have been proven to prevent or reduce the impact of mental injury.
Focusing less on the problems and more on the solutions, the course is an evidence-based curriculum developed from decades of both clinical research and real world success stories; however, much of the concepts are relatively new to first responder culture.
The course goal is a balanced resiliency of mind, body, and spirit. The methods we teach require the discipline of practice, but are easy to learn and easy to apply. They improve over time and can continue to stabilize mental health over a career.
While there is no magic formula that will create an immunity to mental struggles, the principles and tools we teach are extremely efficient in reducing the likelihood of such impairments, while decreasing the impact of such issues if they do occur. Our resiliency training also helps to create a quicker and healthier state of recovery if indeed afflicted by mental injury.
The presentation is engaging, interactive, and practical, focusing most of its content on authentic solutions to common mental health issues among first responders, including PTSD, accumulative stress, addiction, anger management, burnout, and anxiety.

ALCANCE DEL SUICIDIO
When it comes to suicide outreach, doing something is better than doing nothing. Our course presents simple step-by-step development of effective suicide reduction and intervention methods. Focusing less on the problem of suicide and more on the solutions, this training covers the foundation of peer suicide resiliency and crisis response, as well as effective ways to market anti-suicide education within a department.
Developed from nearly 40 years of intervention methodology used by therapists and law enforcement, we teach a simple four step assessment strategy based upon the Interpersonal Theory—one of the most empirically tested published studies on suicide.
The training covers topics such as understanding the mind and rationale of a suicidal peer, getting a peer to admit if he or she is under suicidal influence, assessing the risk level of suicide, learning what to say & what not to say during intervention, and department response procedures in case there is a peer suicide attempt or completion.
According to the Newman Study, one of the largest and most reliable mental health studies of first responders, the methods we teach can reduce department suicide attempts by 66% and suicide completions by half.

PEER SUPPORT
Aprovechando colectivamente más de 30 años de estudios sobre programas de apoyo entre pares para agencias de primeros auxilios, clasificamos lo que realmente funciona y lo que no, junto con métodos más efectivos que han reemplazado a los métodos obsoletos. Nuestro curso integral de apoyo entre pares cubre los temas más esenciales utilizando la información y las estrategias más relevantes que han demostrado tener un impacto en el alcance entre pares para la resiliencia, la intervención y la recuperación.
Nuestra capacitación no solo cubre lo esencial para hacer despegar un programa de pares efectivo, sino también cómo mantenerlo en el aire a pesar de los cambios de personal. Comenzando con la preparación mental de los propios líderes de apoyo entre pares, abordamos los desafíos y las soluciones que encuentran los programas de apoyo entre pares, incluida la reducción de los estigmas y los problemas de confianza, la preservación del anonimato, el desarrollo de una lista de recursos de terapeutas con experiencia en primeros auxilios, la adicción para salvar carreras. intervención y respuestas ideales a incidentes críticos y señales indirectas de compañeros que necesitan ayuda.
También se aborda el tema del fortalecimiento de las relaciones matrimoniales y familiares, ya que los estudios muestran que refuerza la atención plena en el lugar de trabajo.

MENTAL HEALTH STRATEGIES FOR EMERGENCY DISPATCHERS
Emergency dispatchers are essential first responder roles, and yet mental health training and critical incident response is relatively absent from their culture. The unique nature of their job creates specific mental health challenges that must be addressed. Based upon a multitude of mental health studies involving emergency dispatchers, our training provides realistic tools for self-assessment and resiliency regarding high stress influences and traumatic calls.
Supervisor response to vicarious trauma and accumulative stress among staff is addressed in such a way as to increase healthy recovery and reduce turnover.

OPERATION COVRT
La Operación COVRT (Capacitación de resiliencia en video confidencial en línea) es un nuevo programa para 2021 que permite a las personas del sistema de justicia penal que se ven afectadas por delitos contra los niños recibir capacitación sobre resiliencia remota y, al mismo tiempo, preservar su anonimato. La capacitación se adapta a la medida para abordar los problemas específicos de salud mental que pueden resultar de la naturaleza de los delitos contra los niños, incluida la epidemia de tráfico sexual, e incluso permite que el personal encubierto reciba créditos del curso sin revelar su identidad a nuestra organización o al personal de capacitación. . La capacitación se transmite en vivo de una manera a ubicaciones remotas y se ofrece no solo a las fuerzas del orden, sino también a jueces, abogados, ingenieros forenses informáticos, investigadores de servicios de protección infantil, trabajadores sociales y cualquier personal de apoyo expuesto a la naturaleza sensible de los delitos contra los niños. . El programa también puede conectar de manera confidencial a las personas con terapeutas que tengan experiencia específica en terapia de trauma relacionada con la exposición de delitos contra niños. Es el primer programa de este tipo en los Estados Unidos y una ayuda muy necesaria para quienes arriesgan su salud mental para proteger a los inocentes.
