We offer comprehensive support designed to help you and your team manage stress and recover after a traumatic event.
At CISC, we specialize in providing professional critical incident stress management (CISM) services to individuals and organizations impacted by traumatic events.
We work with clients in the Minneapolis/St. Paul metropolitan area and across the country in a variety of helping positions, including hospital and healthcare professionals, first responders, organ procurement organizations (OPOs), and critical incident stress management (CISM) teams.
While people who work in helping fields have generally chosen their profession to be of service to others, they are not immune to the chronic and, sometimes, acute stress inherent in their role. We provide evidence-based strategies and techniques to help embed resilience into organizations and lead people toward healing following a critical incident.
A critical incident can be any event that is distressing and unusual for a workplace, often unexpected, that causes normal stress reactions that overwhelm a person’s typical coping skills. By providing appropriate interventions, we’re able to help people return to their normal routine with fewer lingering symptoms.
We support healthcare professionals in managing the emotional toll of high-pressure environments and critical incidents.
Our stress management strategies help EMS and Fire departments navigate the aftermath of traumatic events and enhance mental well-being.
We offer tailored support for OPOs, helping staff handle the emotional challenges tied to sensitive, life-changing decisions.
We empower Critical Incident Stress Management teams with tools and resources to facilitate stress debriefings and recovery for their teams.
We take the time to learn about your culture so we can recommend the services that will best meet your needs and the needs of your employees in a manner that makes sense for your organization. Our experience assisting people impacted by acute workplace stressors, critical incidents, mass disasters, and other traumatic events has taught us to be optimistic.
