Trauma response, group and 1-2-1

Who to call
In the event that your workplace experiences a critical incident, you can call and speak with an Employee Assistance Consultant. The EAP will assess your situation, and help you develop an action plan that may include:
- a communication to your employees about the event
- on-site Critical Incident Response services
- educational materials
- an urgent EAP appointment, and other suggestions for supporting your employees.
The Employee Assistance Consultant can arrange for rapid-response counsellors to meet on-site with your employees.
