What event would most likely warrant CISM involvement?

The involvement of Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) is most relevant in situations where there is significant emotional distress or trauma within a group, particularly in the context of emergency services, healthcare, or other high-stress professions. The suicide of a fellow worker constitutes a critical incident that can cause profound psychological effects on colleagues, leading to grief, confusion, guilt, or anxiety.

CISM programs are designed to provide immediate emotional support and resources to individuals impacted by such traumatic events, facilitating coping and recovery processes. In this case, it's essential to address the emotional fallout amongst coworkers and provide them with the appropriate support mechanisms to help them process their experiences and feelings.

In contrast, routine medical care, the death of a patient from natural causes, and non-emergency transport of a patient typically do not evoke the same level of trauma or emotional distress that would justify immediate CISM involvement. These situations, while significant, are often part of standard operational experiences that do not usually require the specialized intervention and support that CISM offers.
