While they manage these professionally and work to resolve the issues, over time this can take a toll on them emotionally. We will examine aspects of that and a tool that first responders can use to assist them with their self-care.
Once participants have completed this session, they will:
  1. Understand the positive and negative impacts of helping others;
  2. Understand how exposure to others' trauma can lead to secondary traumatic stress; and,
  3. Understand how the use of ProQol can assist in maintaining positive self-care.
