Public Safety First Responders including police officers, fire fighters, EMTs, and military personnel are special people who dedicate their lives to helping others in critical situations. Due to the stressful nature of their job, first responders are more likely to experience health and mental health problems and less likely to seek help for themselves. Stress and fatigue associated with the important work that first responders do leads to higher rates of depression and alcohol and drug abuse and increased marital strain. American Behavioral has extensive experience working with first responders and understands the needs of this unique population. We understand the challenges and demands that first responders face every day, and we offer several options to help with your unique organizational needs. Our goal is to provide your employees and staff with the tools and resources needed to deal with personal and work related issues, so they can focus on the important work of saving lives.
