You don’t need to reinvent the wheel. Just train it right. In this episode, I’ll show you exactly what kind of training your peer support team needs to be equipped and ready when it matters most.
Does your peer support team actually have the training they need, or are they just winging it?
Caring isn’t enough. Without the right training, peer supporters may overstep, or God forbid, do harm. And that can be disastrous for your team’s effectiveness.
In this episode, I’ll walk you through the essential types of training every peer support team needs, especially in emergency services and high-stress professions.
Whether you’re just getting started or realizing your current team needs more support, this episode gives you a clear and practical training roadmap to build confidence, competence, and care into every conversation.
BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL LEARN:
- The three core areas every team must be trained in
- Why suicide intervention training is non-negotiable
- How to keep your team sharp with ongoing education and support
Don’t guess. Train your team well, and build a culture where people know where to turn when life gets heavy.
