Critical incident response is far more than just emergency help for an individual involved in an incident. It also encompasses counseling and appropriate care for all workers who may have witnessed the incident or been in the workplace as it happened.
No one expects workers to simply bounce back from viewing something like the serious injury of a co-worker, a fatal workplace incident, or a violent attack. Having services available to serve as critical incident stress debriefing is key to effective and swift recovery.
