Moral Injury

Moral injury is a recent phenomenon in the clinical psychology literature, but from preliminary evidence, we know that first responders are at risk of experiencing morally injurious events that lead to telecommunicators struggling both mentally and physically. In this course, Dr. Michelle Lilly will discuss what moral injuries are, the positive benefits of disclosure and peer support, and how seeking the assistance of a trained mental health practitioner is their best way of processing and recovering from these events.
