CISM (Critical Incident Stress Management)

Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) is a structured approach to help individuals cope with the emotional and psychological effects of traumatic events. It provides support through techniques like debriefings and peer assistance, aiming to reduce stress, prevent long-term mental health issues, and promote recovery. CISM is used by first responders, emergency personnel, and others exposed to high-stress incidents, ensuring they process their experiences in a safe environment, maintain well-being, and return to normal functioning effectively.
