Crisis and Critical Incident Support

Crisis and critical incident support is different from counselling or psychotherapy. Sometimes described as emotional first aid, it provides timely support to people affected by a distressing or traumatic event.

Critical incidents can happen in any workplace. Examples include the suicide of a colleague, a serious workplace injury or death, or any event that causes significant distress to employees.

The Halcyon team can support businesses and organisations following a workplace crisis. Depending on the circumstances, this might involve individual support, group support or a combination of both.

Mags Beardow has undertaken training accredited by the International Critical Incident Stress Foundation (ICISF). She can help assess the situation and identify an appropriate response based on the incident and the needs of those affected.

If you are interested in putting together an organisational critical incident response plan for the future or wish Halcyon to offer your employees support after a workplace crisis or critical incident please contact Mags.
