Stress debriefing class helps officers learn how to support one another BY ANDIE L. BRYMER Staff Writer Cleveland County law enforcement, clergy, educators, town and health offi- cials are forming a critical incident stress debriefing team. Dr. Joyce Ann LiBethe spent two days last week training team members. The class was hosted by the Kings Mountain Police Department. LiBethe defines critical incidents as natural disasters, deadly accidents, sin- gular acts of violence or terrorism. Often trauma victims are reluctant to talk about what has happened, howev- er, LiBethe says this can cause long “Eventually that doesn’t work. People’s personal and professional lives suffer,” she said. Talking with someone who has the right training can help defuse the stress. “They don’t have to keep carrying that with them,” LiBethe said. Police and other people likely to be affected by a critical incident are learn- ing to give support to one another. The training session also allows them to meet local mental health workers. The relationships formed now make it easi- er for those people to seek out mental health services if needed later, LiBethe said. LiBethe praised the local group, say- ing she was very impressed with how community oriented they are. A member of the American Red .(Cross ¢ritical response team, LiBethe responded to the Pentagon on Sept. 11, 2001. In October of that year, she worked in New York City with people affected by the World Trade Center Unity service set A county-wide Dr. Martin Luther King unity service is planned for January 18 at Gardner-Webb University. According to Rev. John Houze, the event planners are trying to embrace the Christian community and help peo- ple understand God's love is real. There will be a multi-media presen- tation on King's speeches. Dr. Frank Bonner will give the welcome. Bishop Randy Borders will lead the prayer. Andy Robbie and Ray Hopper will lead congregational singing. Carolyn Briggs will read scripture. Jose Espinal will sing and make remarks. Meloro Kellstrom will lead the mass attacks. How does a stress and trauma expert avoid burn out? LiBethe took her own advice after the two Sept. 11 related assignments. For a short period, she stopped working critical incidents while maintaining the teaching aspect of her job. She also talked with others about the stress. “Social support is important for everyone,” she said. “Often people feel alienated. They see they're not the only one feeling that way. It helps with recovery.” LiBethe is on the International Critical Incident Stress Foundation fac- ulty and is amember of the Aviation Air Incident Response Team, International Disaster Response Unit and the federal Homeland Security: Team. choir. Dr. Gerald Keown will introduce speaker Dr. Robert Smith, a professor of preaching at Samford Theological Seminary. Carroll Page will lead the candle lighting. A reception will follow. Houze praised the keynote speaker. “That man can tell you something,” he said.
