The duration of the intervention depends on the size of the group and the nature of the incident, as well as the willingness of your staff to ask questions and engage in discussion. Typically, the group component runs for around 60 minutes, afterwhich our CIR practitioner will stay on site to administer more personal interventions to individuals.

The extent to which individuals take up this option also depends on the nature of the incident, their relationship to it (or to the person or people involved affected by the incident), as well as a person’s own unique history and background, as all these things may impact a person’s emotional response to a potentially traumatic event.
