CISD
Emergency Consultation on- site services available. We have an experienced crisis clinician who has provided on site services and consultation to companies in person and over the phone for years. If you are doing a downsizing and want someone on site to provide services to laid-off employees or need debriefing services to employees who have experienced a robbery, injury, or death at work call to consult. Research shows that an employee who is traumatized at work by witnessing or experiencing a traumatic incident will become less productive unless they have had time to debrief the trauma on site or off-site. Most employees view these services being available to them as sign of respect and validation from the company of what has happened to them. The research shows that when these services have been provided, employees use less sick time and personal time off and they are more productive while on the job. Companies who want their most valuable asset, their employees, to be able to return to work faster and with ability to functioning at their peak performance know getting services for them quickly when exposed to a critical incident is imperative.
