Group debriefings and CISM

Critical Incident Stress Management is a comprehensive, integrative, multicomponent crisis intervention system. CISM is considered comprehensive because it consists of multiple crisis intervention components, which functionally span the entire temporal spectrum of a crisis. CISM interventions range from the pre-crisis phase through the acute crisis phase, and into the post-crisis phase. Crisis intervention is a short-term helping process. It is an acute intervention designed to stabilize and mitigate the crisis response (Evenrly & Mitchelle, 2008). It is not psychotherapy. The goals are to foster natural resiliency through stabilization, symptom reduction, return to adaptive functioning and / or facilitation of access to continued care (adapted from Caplan, 1961).
