If So, More Tools Are Needed
First responders are skilled in dealing with crises. It’s what they do. But in supporting the first responders themselves, the leadership knows post-crisis responses are often not sufficient and, far too often, arrive too late.
In a world where crisis response/reactivity is a necessity, proactivity has been not prioritized, something leadership in many organizations are keenly aware of.
How this is Accomplished
How can you be proactive when it comes to supporting first responders in fire, police and ambulance services? The answer is surprisingly simple. You add pre-crisis tools to the post-crisis tools in your toolkit.
If waiting until “the pot is boiling over” requires a significant post-incident response, then turning down the heat long before it reaches the boiling point is the logical approach.
Now, there is an innovative process for doing this:
LIFELINES™ Pre-Crisis Support for First Responders
Just as fire-prevention mitigates the need for fire-fighting, pre-crisis support reduces the need for post-crisis intervention. It’s just a matter of knowing how to add pre-crisis support to your toolkit. The LIFELINES Program teaches you how.
Not Your Typical Leadership Course
One participant of the LIFELINES program said, “When I first saw the program description for the community-building training at the NWRETAC Leadership Conference, I figured it would be a typical leadership course in emergency services and was pleasantly surprised by how wrong I was.”
Although I am not, evidently, exceptionally skilled in composing program descriptions, I can convey the spirit and the value of the program quite effectively during a 20-minute Zoom call with you.
Would you like to take a closer look at the LIFELINES program? Contact me and we can schedule your Zoom call to see if this is a fit for your organization.
I’m looking forward to meeting you! ~ Lori
