https://lnkd.in/gDzm_BaJ NOAA predicts above-normal 2024 Atlantic hurricane season. This is the initial outlook and is updated in early August prior to the peak of the Atlantic season. It's also important to note that this is for seasonal activity. It doesn't mean the number of landfalls and it only takes one bad storm to cause significant damage. Preparedness shouldn't be just about hurricane season or flu season or winter storm season. Preparedness is about the little things that people should think of doing to be prepared for whatever the next emergency is. This could be a power outage due to power lines down from an accident or a flat tire in your driveway before you leave for work or the myriad of other regular occurrences that aren't giant hurricanes swirling up the eastern coastline. Do you have a plan for your family? Medications? Pets? Do you have contact information for key people or services somewhere other than in your phone? Could you handle being out of power for a day? 3 days? Preparing for the smaller events will help you be better prepared for the bigger ones. There are a lot of resources available with tools, ideas, and solutions to increase your personal resilience during an emergency. Preparedness starts with individual preparedness.

Creating a more human response to disasters by merging mental health and resilience with emergency management.
关于我们
Convergence Group LLC was formed to bring together the fields of mental health and emergency management with a focus on responders. Too often these fields are siloed, or brought together only after an emergency has occurred, instead of along the entire emergency management cycle or into existing first responder training. We are a group of experienced mental health and emergency management professionals with field experience who have expertise providing consulting services and technical assistance in a wide variety of emergency settings across the United States and the world. We provide training in workforce resilience, disaster mental health, stress management, and trauma recovery to public, private, non-profit, and other organizations including Federal, State, and local government entities. We support all phases of the emergency management cycle and other key areas including public health preparedness, healthcare facility preparedness, mortuary affairs, and more. We provide customized presentations for small and large groups, skill-building workshops, and technical assistance in program development, planning, and recovery. Today more than ever, disasters and emergencies of all types require individuals, small businesses, large businesses, non-profits, and others to be prepared to manage the human toll. Whether you need assistance from the mental health perspective, emergency management perspective, or our expertise in melding the two, contact us to discuss how we can best meet your individual needs.

OSHA's new proposed rule for Emergency Responders is out and open for comments. There are many proposed changes that will have impacts to both volunteer and career departments. For the first time, they've included a necessary Mental Health component. The proposed rule states that the resources provided shall include components such as diagnostic assessment, short-term counseling, crisis intervention, and referral services. As with any proposed rule, the details matter. It's worth the read for those impacted by the proposed rules and glad to see it looks to address this much needed gap. Your comments should be heard. https://lnkd.in/ey6CHAB8
