About the Training: The Group CISM training program, based on the work of Dr. Jeffery Mitchell, provides the core elements of a comprehensive, systematic and multi-component crisis intervention curriculum. The two-day course prepares participants to understand a wide range of crisis intervention services including pre- and post-incident crisis education, significant other support services, on-scene support services, crisis intervention for individuals, demobilizations after large scale traumatic incidents, small group defusing and the group intervention known as Critical Incident Stress Debriefing (CISD). At the conclusion of this course, participants will be able to: define stress, CIS and PTSD; list the 10 basic interventions of CISM; and define and describe in detail the CISM group processes of demobilizations, defusings and debriefings. Considerable evidence gathered to date strongly supports the multi-component crisis intervention strategy which is discussed in this course.
