Abstract

Critical Incident Stress Debriefing is an intervention that assists patients and families to master the stresses resulting from being a witness to or victim of violent acts. Intervening at the level of the family system, the clinical nurse specialist can facilitate communication, decrease anxiety, and provide education regarding the post-trauma response.
