This on-demand professional training program on Extreme Event Consultation Operational Support is presented by Jaime Brower, PsyD, ABPP, in partnership with the American Board of Police and Public Safety Psychology (ABPPSP).

This program provides core knowledge for psychologists to either oversee, coordinate or assist in the recovery efforts of a mass casualty event. While providing an overview of the psychological footprint of either a mass casualty or extreme event incident, the foci will delineate the different impacts of dealing with a natural disaster casualty event versus a human-generated event, the identification of the impacted individuals to include the first and second responders, the trauma contamination process as well as the accompanying trauma symptoms, and the psychologists’ roles from consultation to psychological Incident Command.
