Roundtable Talk: Prioritizing Behavioral Health in the Fire & Emergency Services
July 24 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm EDT
FREEFire and EMS personnel regularly put others before themselves. However, as would be said on any standard flight, you have to put on your own air mask before you can help others. Join a panel of experts on July 24 at 2pm ET to learn what self-care looks like, why it’s so important, and how it impacts first responders’ behavioral health. The discussion will equip responders with the tools needed to take care of themselves both now and in the future, and provide practical tips for implementing self-care in everyday life, after a difficult call, and following a disaster.
Panelists include: Dick Brown, California State Firefighters’ Association Chaplain; Jeff Dill, Firefighter Behavioral Health Alliance; and Wendy Norris, Texas LODD Task Force
