In the latest episode of our “Positive Rate” podcast, Communications Committee Deputy Chair FO Melissa Monahan talks with FO Ken Hagan, Aeromedical Committee Deputy Chair-Critical Incident Response Program (CIRP). CIRP's mission is to lessen the psychological impact of on-the-job accidents and incidents on crewmembers and their families and to accelerate normal recovery from those events before harmful stress reactions damage job performance, careers, families, and health. FO Hagan details how the positive steps taken before and after a critical accident or incident will affect both short- and long-term physiological and psychological health.
