Critical Event Stress Management

Thankfully it’s not everyday, but there are times when our staff members encounter emotionally stressful situations—such as natural disasters, acts of verbal or physical violence, accidents or dealing with unexpected deaths. You don’t have to suffer through situations like these alone. Through the Critical Event Stress Management program, our trained Housing & Health Coordinators can provide comfort and coping strategies when a critical incident occurs. In particularly difficult cases, referrals are made to professionals trained to lessen the psychological impact of dealing with tragic events and to promote a healthy recovery through our Employee and Family Assistance Program .
