The CISM: Group Crisis
Intervention training program is designed to present the core elements
of a comprehensive, systematic and multicomponent crisis intervention
curriculum. The two day course prepares participants to understand
a wide range of crisis intervention services including pre and
post incident crisis education, significant other support services,
on-scene support services, crisis intervention for individuals,
demobilizations after large scale traumatic incidents, small group
defusings and the group intervention known as Critical Incident
Stress Debriefing (CISD). The CISM: Group Crisis Intervention course
specifically prepares participants to provide several of these
interventions, specifically demobilizations, defusings and the
CISD. The need for appropriate follow up services and referrals
when necessary is also described. Considerable evidence gathered
to date strongly supports the multicomponent crisis intervention
strategy, which is discussed in this course. The CISM: Group Crisis
Intervention course is designed to specifically teach crisis intervention
and Emergency Mental Health skills such as demobilizations, defusing,
and CISD. At the completion of this course, participants will be
able to : Define stress, CIS, and PTSD; List the 10 basic interventions
of CISM; and Define and describe in detail the CISM group processes

Crisis intervention
is NOT psychotherapy, rather it is a specialized acute emergency
mental health intervention which requires specialized training/
As physical first-aid is to surgery, crisis intervention is to
psychotherapy. Thus, crisis intervention is sometimes called "emotional
first-aid." Crisis interventions are typically done
individually (one-on-one) or in groups. This program is designed
to teach participants the fundamentals of, and a specific protocol
for, individual intervention. The audience for this class includes
both emergency services, military, and business/industrial peer
support personnel without formal training in mental health, as
well as mental health professionals, who desire to increase their
knowledge of individual (one-on-one) crisis intervention techniques.
