Critical Incident Stress Debriefing: a Case of Developing and Implementing Policy

Pages : 35
Book Description
My department recognized that we were neglecting a vital piece of equipment in our inventory. This tool was a system such as CISD. CISD should be considered as a piece of equipment that is used to maintain our most valuable resource, our people. This paper will explain the process my department utilized to develop and implement a policy for CISD. I gathered research material on CISD, including numerous articles, a few books, and video tapes. The departments represented in my EFO class, "Strategic Analysis of Fire Department Operations" provided some information from their policies on CISD. In addition, several departments in my county were contacted for information on CISD. A major resource for the research in this paper, and for assistance in developing our policy was a newly formed CISD team in my area (The Southwest Ohio CISD Team).

Fire Department Strategic Planning, 3rd Edition
Author: Mark Wallace
Publisher: Fire Engineering Books
ISBN: 1593705700
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 329
Book Description
From the author: This 3rd edition is about organized common sense in the fire service. Section One provides support to fire departments that already have a strategic plan and just need to update and revise their existing plan. I have found over my 30 years of consulting with fire department’s that they want to accomplish their next iteration of their strategic plan as rapidly as possible. Section Two provides a detailed “How-to” guide to help a fire department create its first strategic plan. Section Two is divided into four parts: (1) Understanding the Department, (2) Understanding the Situation, (3) Understanding the Strategic Issues Facing the Department, and (4) Creating Organizational Change. A new chapter (Chapter 20) provides assistance to those departments having challenges with their strategic plan and obtaining the desired outcomes/results. It adds a new troubleshooting process for those departments having challenges to create an effective and successful strategic plan. The book is designed to be effective as a manual to develop an individual fire department’s strategic plan as well as a textbook for use in upper division college/university courses or as a text for post-graduate courses.
