Guest guest Posted February 14, 2011 Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 Hey guys, I had to chuckle. I m taking a course on Critical Incident Stress and Trauma Management. The text I was reading today casually said, some of you may have even experienced trauma yourselves. Pause BwahahahahahahahahahahahahaHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA! Interesting course though. I ll be setting up a Critical Incident and Trauma response team after we complete training. KO s should be the ideal people for that. After all, trauma was our life! But the statement gave me a giggle. So how about you guys? Ever experienced any trauma? Pause BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Wipes a tear. Oh my.

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2011 Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 Yeah, with KOs, maybe a more appropriate question is: " Ever experienced a lull in trauma? " If the course you're describing is anything like " Emergency Preparedness Training " , I was so all over that when the company I used to work for decided to pull out all the stops and get into Emergency Preparedness big time. I think you're right, and KOs have special previous training and experience in trauma and injury situations. -Annie > > > Hey guys, > > > > I had to chuckle.

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2011 Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 lol Doug, your post made me chuckle =) I think you're right, we've been training all our lives to deal with emergencies & trauma. Maybe that's why I want to work ER some day! The class does sound interesting though. I'd like to learn more about it. Good luck Doug! (I almost typed Dough again haha).

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 Doug - OMG. You know how ready.gov is urging everybody to have a 3-day emergency kit? I'm good for a full week. My prime request for a new house (if we ever get to move from here) is a tornado shelter. My bathroom first aid kit is a thing of wonder. And it's not just because we're a Scouting family. I have spent my life " being prepared. " Never connected it with Nada until now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 Nope. Not A Dose or Any (hey - that's NADA!) Ok... stupid joke. Anyway... I hadn't realized how PREPARED FOR THE END OF THE WORLD I was til last week when teen and I were talking (or rather teen was talking and I was trying - GodBlessHim - to follow) and he said, " In the event of a Zombie Apocolypse... " (teen's latest tangent) and then went on about cooking, fire, water, hiking, survival stuff. I chimed in with 'how to's' on all teen's questions/statements. Then teen looked at me and said, " well... I'm STICKING WITH YOU! Sure... you're OLD but geez mom... is there ANY EMERGENCY SITUATION YOU CAN'T HANDLE???? " Nope. And Yep.

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 Speaking of trauma....has anyone taken a look at complex ptsd? Doug, I think I'll need to save your post for it's simplicity and the tears of laughter it evokes! It was just a little bit of trauma from birth until now-ish....
