- Group diffusing is a short group intervention done shortly after an incident. Multiple interventions are adapted to meet the needs of diverse organizational cultures and workers facing myriad challenges.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
- Conduct a <\/span>critical incident stress debriefing<\/span><\/i>. This group intervention is used as a follow-up (if needed) to the group diffusing. This acts to get a sense of where people are weeks after the crisis.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
