The concept of whether CISD "works" or not unfortunately isn't a light switch which gives us a clear yes/no.<BR/><BR/>For the group where CISD doesn't work are providers worse? Are they harmed? This is much different than simply not getting a benefit from the debriefing.<BR/><BR/>Hopefully the days of being forced into a debriefing are nearing an end.<BR/><BR/>Finally, we are in 100% agreement that stress is an individual issue--not just from the big calls.Dan Limmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11666279767120682672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3059545338165002322.post-25024527263554946342008-01-18T16:49:00.000-05:002008-01-18T16:49:00.000-05:00I think that CISD works for some people, and not f...I think that CISD works for some people, and not for others. The difference is forcing people to be a part of it. I've seen people walk away from a debriefing feeling satisfied, and I've seen others waiting in the parking lot with bats and broken beer bottles. Just like patients, not every provider is the same! I personally would not want to be forced into a CISD (although I have been). Any calls I have had trouble with were certainly NOT the type to have a CISD team activated!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
