| Sumario: | In the frame of APSPE (psychosocial attention for emergencies) SPS (psychosocial support) cares for affected persons and rescue personnel during the first days after a critical incident. It only can succeed if the attitude is preventive and not clinical or therapeutic. The survivors of catastrophes who are not hurt physically, are not ill, but distressed: they suffer from the mental consequences of the experienced danger, the helplessness and the accompanying excessive stress. They are not crazy, and so they do not need treatment. Following the concept of “Health for All” the activation of trained volunteers, peers, who are not psychologists, is important and effective. It seems evident that these peers are best disposed as stress managers or teachers (psychoeducation). This is also the way to lower considerably the threshold for help seeking behaviour. In this way (secondary) prevention of psycho-somatic sequelae is guaranteed foraffected persons helpersand communities.Networking at an interprofessional, intercultural and transnational level seems to be essential at least in Europe with her cultural, linguistic and religious varieties on a small bit of territory. |
