Co-Creating Healthier Cultures through quality Conversations

E37 • Sep 7, 2018 • 38 mins

In this episode, Roxanne converses with Dr. Sajel Bellon about PTSD's impact on emergency services. They delve into the cumulative effect of trauma, the importance of tough conversations, and strategies for coping. They also discuss the systemic changes needed in mental health approaches within emergency services and the tragic reality of suicide.

Key Points

  • Addressing PTSD in a systemic way, including families and communities, creates more sustainable change and improves quality of life for emergency service workers and their families.
  • Open and tough conversations can strengthen relationships and provide a sense of connection, helping to prevent feelings of isolation and addressing mental health issues before they escalate.
  • Understanding the signs of trauma, such as feelings of disconnect, and encouraging dialogue at home allows spouses and families to support each other and build resilience against occupational stress injuries.
