Battalion Chief (Ret.) Tom Yahnke joins the podcast to discuss peer support teams. We discuss the importance of peer support teams, the difference between peer support and EAP, and what makes a good peer support team member.
We also discuss the life-altering incident he experienced on a fire and how peer support, if available at that time, may have helped him avoid some of the problems he encountered trying to deal with that incident.
