If the assault has been disclosed to ONLY a SARC, VA, or HCP, it shall not be reported to the chain of command or law enforcement, unless the victim consents or an established exception is exercised under COMDTINST M1754.10 (series). • Unrestricted Reporting option may be used by the service member to disclose to his or her chain of command that he or she is the victim of a sexual assault. “Service member” is defined as Coast Guard active duty members and Coast Guard reserve members on active duty or in a drill status, unless otherwise noted.

  27. Critical Incident Stress Management • The Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) program is intended to help individuals exposed to critical incidents to identify and cope with their responses to these events. • The focus of CISM is to provide “psychological first aid” and to minimize the harmful affects of job stress, particularly in crisis or emergency situations. • Critical Incident Stress Management includes pre-incident training and post-incident services.

  28. Critical Incident Stress Management • Critical Incident - Any event with sufficient impact to produce significant emotional reactions now or later. It is generally considered extremely unusual in the range of ordinary human experiences. Examples of critical incidents include the following: • Crew members death in line of duty • Children’s death or serious injury • Multiple fatalities or seriously injured survivors • Suicide, successful or attempted • Natural disasters • Class A or B mishaps involving death or permanent injury and otherwise high emotional impact • Use of deadly force • Grotesque injuries • Acts of terrorism • Acts of violence resulting in injury or death • Observing any traumatic event

  29. Critical Incident Stress Management • Critical Incident Stress Debriefing (CISD) - A group meeting intended to: • Acknowledge both potential and realized traumatic reactions to the event or incident • Stabilize and mitigate the impact of acute symptoms/signs of distress following the exposure • Assist individuals to evaluate their own responses in terms of the impact on their current occupational functioning and the possible need for ongoing referral/treatment • Encourage the mitigating effects of peer group support and interaction in the workplace • Facilitate participants’ use of social, emotional, and psychological resources available to them
