As our healthcare providers in our communities are focusing on disaster relief and resiliency, they face these many challenging questions in bringing support to those suffering PTSD while trying to rebuild a new future:
Rural healthcare professionals are the heart of your communities and will play a crucial role in helping the people of North Carolina recover from the devastation of Hurricane Helene. The road to recovery after a catastrophic natural disaster is long, and survivors will need support for years to come. This session, led by our faculty of disaster recovery mental health professionals, will equip you with the skills and knowledge to face the unique challenges of disaster response as you help communities rebuild.
Empowering more healthcare professionals, particularly rural nurses, to be trained and ready to respond in times of disaster will be an invaluable asset to our local communities, state, nation, and world. Topic specific focus on hurricane relief for NC will be covered that is reflective of both eastern and western experiences in our state.
Additionally, we will offer optional breakout sessions focused on group listening, networking support, and identifying best practices to address the current disaster support needs of the state.

Hurricane Helene was an historic storm for a large region of the southern U.S.
Our friends, neighbors, colleagues, and whole communities in the mountains of Western North Carolina have suffered unimaginable flooding and devastation.
As Mr. Rogers would say (to help preschoolers cope with their feelings when facing similar situations), "Look for the helpers. There are always helpers."
*Right now, people are urged not to 'self-deploy' to affected areas so that vital work can be done by emergency workers. *
We are sharing with you some resources that contain links and contact information to help guide your efforts to help.
