Critical Incidents

In our profession things can happen in a split second.
What is a critical incident? Some examples are:

-An assault on staff or an inmate
-Use of Force
-Suicide
-Homicide
-Hostage situation

What should you do after a critical incident?

1) Tend to any medical injuries. Even if your injury seems minor at the time fill out an I.O.D. (Injury On Duty) report and have it looked at. What seems OK now might not be tomorrow when the adrenaline is off.

2) Call a steward.
