SafeHaven CISM response service is verified by the International Critical Incident Stress Foundation (ICISF).
Pre-incident preparation
Preparing for managing the impact of a psychological critical incident involves understanding the psychological risk profile of your organisation. You can achieve this through a psychological risk audit and gap analysis, to identify your organisation’s needs for crisis mental health care against best practice guidelines and ISO standards. Implementing effective peer-support can then be achieved through policies and standard operating procedures alongside tailored in-house training for designated staff; ensuring your peer-network has a detailed action plan identifying when and how to respond when an incident occurs.
Crisis response
If your organisation experiences a critical incident that has the potential to cause people acute stress or distress, you can access a team of specially trained CISM crisis mental health professionals who will attend your premises, or an alternative nearby location, to mitigate the psychological impact and manage the psychological safety of those involved.
Initial support will often be engaged in the immediate aftermath of an incident; however, effective support can also be provided several weeks later. As part of the service, every person we support also receives follow up assistance with our mental health professionals over the first few weeks of their recovery.
CISM stands for Critical Incident Stress Management, an established best practice range of psychosocial support interventions designed to support people after shocking incidents. As the only UK accredited CISM service, you can ensure that with our mental-health teams your personnel receive the highest standards in psychosocial care.
Post-incident support
After a psychological critical incident it is not unusual to find up to one third of the people involved significantly affected and either struggling to cope with the demands of their job or absent from work. When this happens you have access to our tele-health support service; your staff can access psychological assessments and counselling, to support them through their recovery.
