Brief Description: Provides examples of physical and emotional signs of persons that may be in crisis after an event

Full Description: Crisis Awareness Training provides participants examples of physical and emotional signs a co-worker, family member, friend or the employee themselves may exhibit after a traumatic event. This can be brought about by an incident at work, in their personal life, or as the result of the cumulative effects of exposure to traumatic situations. While everyone’s reaction to trauma is unique, this course gives possible signs and symptoms to look out for, as well as techniques to help someone who may benefit from assistance. Issues discussed include: physical, cognitive and emotional responses to trauma, alcohol/drug issues, techniques and strategies for working through the effects of a traumatic incident. We often want to help someone dealing with trauma, don’t know how to best assist them. This course provides the opportunity to ask questions about trauma and stress, as well as gives resources and concepts to help not only someone else, but the employee themselves. This course also includes one hour of Addiction Awareness, which focuses on chemical addiction (drugs & alcohol) and process addiction (gaming, shopping, sex etc.). The extent of addiction is discussed and resources for assistance are provided.
