What is a CISM Team?
The
Southwest Ohio Critical Incident Stress Management Team (CISM) is a group of
dedicated, sensitive and specially trained professionals who help emergency
personnel deal with the most stressful aspects and occurrences of their
occupations. The CISM Team is comprised of emergency service support persons
representing all areas of emergency care and public safety services including:
Nurses, Physicians, Emergency Medical Technicians, Paramedics, Law Enforcement
Officers, Fire Fighters,
The Southwest Ohio Critical Incident Stress
Management Team was developed to provide debriefing following critical
incidents for any Public Safety Service Worker and/or Critical Care Provider
requesting assistance. The focus of
this service is to minimize the harmful effects of job stress, particularly in
crisis, or emergency situations. As
such, the highest priority is to provide services to mitigate the
harmful effects of job stress utilizing educational services i.e.; on scene
support, defusings, debriefings, & individual needs. The team will also maintain confidentiality
and respect the feelings of all individuals involved. It is not the function of the Team to replace on-going
professional counseling, but to provide education and immediate crisis
intervention. Through the CISM Team
educational process, the TEAM provides an important tool to alleviate
stress-related symptoms.
