Crisis situations are as varied as the individuals and communities impacted by them. Because there is no “one size fits all” approach to crisis intervention, we need a comprehensive and flexible set of tools and strategies to support people experiencing critical incident stress.
Join Dr. Dean Grace for an in-depth introduction to the process of planning for, and intervening in, crisis situations. Dr. Grace will discuss the assessment skills needed to understand how people are responding to a crisis, enabling us to determine which interventions to use and when. The session will explore both the strategic and tactical considerations involved in effective crisis management.
