  • When Plans Become Reality - UNC Charlotte Active Shooter

    When Plans Become Reality - UNC Charlotte Active Shooter
    May 17 2024
    In this episode, I speak to the Director of Emergency Management at UNC Charlotte about a wide variety of topics including one of the most important: planning.

    Chris dives into what it is like being the Emergency Managment Director at a large higher education establishment on the east coast and some of the challenges there in.

    We talk about the benefits of collaboration between entities both on and off campus and how they were tested during one of the most tragic events to ever occur on their campus: an active shooter with confirmed victims.

    Thank you to Chris and the UNC Charlotte team for all their continued efforts towards readiness and ensuring the safety of the campus and the surrounding community.

    Mental Health and Wellness Mini Series Part IV ft. Nick Carson
    May 4 2024
    In this final episode of the Mental Health and Wellness mini-series, Nick Carson brings a fresh perspective on Peer Support and the critical link between a member in crisis and getting the help they need.

    Nick wears many hats but one of the most important ones is his role with Mind the Frontline. We dive into peer support and Nick's position at the non-profit Mind the Frontline whose entire purpose for being is to "support those who selflessly safeguard our communities"

    "It is not normal or okay to suffer" - We also talk about a culture of good mental health and how the results benefit both the member and the Department/agency they are a part of.

  • Mental Health and Wellness Mini Series Part III ft. Beth Jacobs

    Mental Health and Wellness Mini Series Part III ft. Beth Jacobs
    Apr 19 2024
    Beth Jacobs is a licenced clinical mental health counselor and has been for the past eight years. She is also a law enforcement spouse of 24 years and a mom of three.

    Beth and host Prescott Nadeau dive into the clinician portion of mental health and wellness with a focus on EMDR therapy and its restorative effects for emergency service providers. We also hit on trust and the critical nature of developing a relationship as an individual or Department with a clinician.

    "It became apparent this was going to be a lot about death" - Beth, reflecting upon early recognition about being the spouse of a police officer and how that ultimately led to a much greater understanding of emergency services and how to connect with such a unique group of people.
