Police and sheriff personnel routinely face highly stressful work days with regular exposure to traumatic events. These direct and ongoing threats to their overall health trigger negative behavioral, psychological, physical, and emotional consequences. Anxiety, substance abuse, suicidality, professional burnout, memory problems, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), heart disease, gastrointestinal issues, and generalized pain symptoms are just a few of the troubling consequences of this exposure to trauma. General George Patton famously stated: “An Army is a team. It lives, eats, sleeps, and fights as a team.” First responders also behave as a team, and, if injured or unable to return to work for a period of time, these team members, like athletes and soldiers, can experience significant emotional pain and feelings of rejection because they are away from their work team.
