Basic Emotional First Aid Offering

By J.M. Rowe, N5XFW - Arkansas Section Manager

I have been asked to pass this on to the hams (or other volunteers) that might respond to any sort of emergency. This is an educational offering called "Basic Emotional First Aid". It will be offered in three seperate areas of the state. There is a cost associated.

Critical Incident Stress causes a lot of people to quit or at least have some sort of inappropriate response. All of us have seen that, so maybe this course is something each of us should give serious consideration.
