Interactions with Individuals with Disabilities
Public Safety Professionals are faced with many challenges as part of their daily routines and shift assignments. The dynamic nature of the career itself attracts many who aspire to work in a setting where no two days are ever the same. This perception holds true when interacting with members of the communities that they serve, as no two encounters are ever the same. As a result, public safety professionals are able to quickly recognize patterns of behavior. Being able to determine if a person is a threat to personal safety is always the priority; however, there are some people who don’t fit the expected patterns of behavior. These members of the community may have disabilities that make them behavioral outliers who now require an individualized and unique approach to best serve their needs. This course will help you identify and effectively manage individuals with cognitive and behavioral disabilities as part of your overall emergency response.
