Responder Resilience
The job doesn't stop when the call ends. Neither does this podcast. RESPONDER RESILIENCE: real conversations with firefighters, police, EMS, dispatch, and the clinicians who serve them. Trauma. Leadership. Culture. Retirement. Our Clinician's Guide series and the book Helping the Helpers, built from over 200 of these conversations, go further: real insight for first responders and the clinicians who serve them. Hosted by Lt. David Dachinger (Ret.), Dr. Stacy Raymond, and Bonnie Rumilly, LCSW/EMT. New episodes weekly.
