Mental Health Support.
Mental health is a major issue for first responders. Our team is here to help.
According to the IAFF:
19% of firefighters experienced suicidal thoughts
27% of firefighters struggled with substance abuse
65% of firefighters suffer from PTSD
80% of firefighters said asking for help would make them seem “weak”
During our annual NFPA 1582 health assessments, we conduct a comprehensive mental health exam. This includes questionnaires that the firefighter fills out, along with an oral mental health exam from one of our providers. We also offer tele-counseling services with our licensed therapists, specifically specialized in first responder issues. If you don't have a program in place for your crew, please reach out to us.
