Details

The goal of the course is to provide the student with the skills necessary to effectively recognize and process calls from suicidal persons. 

Suicidal callers are desperate and don’t know where to turn.  When they call 9-1-1 it is imperative that the 9-1-1 Telecommunicator is able to build rapport with the caller and gain valuable information for the responders to get the caller the help they need.
