Critical incidents
and significant
events
Our stepped care model helps you with early
intervention and ongoing support when things go wrong.
Our stepped care model
Our three-phased model offers early intervention and support to staff and managers immediately following the event, and continues for up to 30 days post-incident.
In consultation with you, our response is guided by one of our senior triage clinicians. Available 24/7, 365 days a year, our services are delivered by our national rapid response team of experienced clinicians.
Phase one
Psychological first aid
Receive early psychological intervention and first aid immediately after a critical incident. Individuals identified as being at high risk of subsequent psychological injury, and currently presenting with an acute stress response, will continue to receive follow-up services from Assure.
Phase two
Skills for psychological recovery
Over the next 7 days, individuals are assessed and monitored for emerging trauma symptoms. Our focus is on normalisation of distress, risk assessment and providing practical coping strategies.
Phase three
Specialist intervention
Our trauma specialists engage with staff exhibiting high symptoms, continue to evaluate any ongoing stress responses, provide practical coping strategies, and monitor emerging trauma symptoms.
