First responders often deal with people in crisis. They are sometimes illogical, unreasonable, and bordering on dangerous. Sometimes they are dangerous.
It is imperative that officers, EMTs, firefighters–everyone in public safety–learn how to quickly develop rapport and initiate calmative tactics with such people. Problem is: Most training teaches for ‘cookie-cutter’ to what are in fact complex and dynamic events. No two situations are the same.
Understanding human beings in crisis, what they want and the commonalities of stress is where success begins. This webinar will address realistic, simple and immediately applicable skill sets designed to work on the street.
