Someone knowing who to call is not the same as your department knowing what to do.
Behavioral Health Brief No. 01 examines what happens when a fire department's access to behavioral health care quietly depends on a referral list and the one person who knows how to use it. It’s written for fire chiefs, command staff, peer support leaders, and anyone responsible for behavioral health inside a department.
Inside:
- The Brief: the argument behind the issue
- What I'm Seeing: patterns showing up across departments
- Seven Reality Checks that stress-test your referral pathway
- From the Field: when access to one person becomes organizational dependency
- What Good Looks Like: the characteristics of a stronger referral capability
- Questions for Command: a printable discussion page built for your next leadership or peer-team meeting
16 pages. Designed to read on a tablet or print at 8.5 x 11 and mark up. You're welcome to print copies for your command staff or peer team.
