Question 1 of 5
The nurse manager of the emergency department arranges for critical incident stress debriefing for the staff after a mass casualty incident. Which statement by the debriefing team leader is most appropriate for this situation?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: While evaluating what went wrong and developing policies for future incidents is important, this statement is more suited for an after-action review or a quality improvement session. A critical incident stress debriefing focuses on the emotional and psychological support for staff rather than policy evaluation. Excluding ancillary personnel from the debriefing session is inappropriate. All staff involved in the incident, including ancillary personnel, should be included in the debriefing to address their emotional and psychological needs. This statement does not support the inclusive nature of debriefing sessions. Passing around the disaster written policy for review is not appropriate for a stress debriefing session. The purpose of a debriefing is to provide a safe space for staff to express their emotions and experiences rather than reviewing policies. This statement is appropriate for a critical incident stress debriefing as it encourages staff to express their feelings openly and assures them of confidentiality. Creating a safe and supportive environment is essential for addressing the emotional and psychological impact of the incident on staff.
