FEMALE SPEAKER: Kristen, it's so good to see you. FEMALE SPEAKER: Hey, good to see you. FEMALE SPEAKER: I'm very glad you came back today to talk. So how are you doing? FEMALE SPEAKER: Awful. Pretty awful. I'm having a really rough time. So you know I work for the local office of Emergency Management, and-- FEMALE SPEAKER: Yeah, I remember. FEMALE SPEAKER: This past week, I was with a group test to help rescue children from a falling school, and the scene was unimaginable. I mean, mothers were screaming and calling for their children. People were grabbing at us, just frantically pointing in every direction, begging us to help them find their son or their daughter, or-- I mean, it was just absolute chaos. FEMALE SPEAKER: It sounds like you're not taking time to breathe, so take a breath. FEMALE SPEAKER: I got to this area that was just all rubble, and someone throws a hard hat on my head and says, we need you in here. Come down here. And they said there was this little girl that they need help reaching because their arms were too big. My arm was small enough, so I reached my arm in. I couldn't reach her, but I could see her through the opening. I was able to see a part of this little face, and I could hear her. And as soon as I said hello, she started to cry, and she started asking for her mom. All she wanted was her mom, and I just kept trying to keep her calm and just talk to her and say we're going to get you out, and she had her little fingers reaching up. I could see her little fingers, and so I reached in, and could just touch her little fingers, almost just fingertip to fingertip. And she just kept crying, and I kept promising, we are going to get you out. FEMALE SPEAKER: I can hear the pain in your voice when you speak of this child. Tell me more about what you're feeling. FEMALE SPEAKER: I knew I was there to help, but I couldn't. So I felt helpless. I felt scared. I wanted to be able to just rip through the rubble. I don't know. FEMALE SPEAKER: Kristen, I cannot imagine the fear you must have felt, and the sadness. Right now, you're safe, but it must have been a hopeless and devastating feeling at the time. FEMALE SPEAKER: Yeah. I had hoped that I could help, but then there was this rumble or a shake, and the people I was with pulled me out in case something collapsed. And I couldn't help anymore. I never got to go back. FEMALE SPEAKER: Well, it sounds like you did everything you could do to help at that moment. FEMALE SPEAKER: I just feel like-- sometimes, I feel like I just can't move. FEMALE SPEAKER: Can't move? FEMALE SPEAKER: Yeah, I feel like I'm still there. I can feel her fingertips, and I don't know what happened because I got pulled away. I don't know who went back in. I don't know who was rescued. I don't know who wasn't, so I just feel stuck. FEMALE SPEAKER: Kristen, your experience was traumatic, and everyone deals with this in a different way. We call this post traumatic stress. Talking to a therapist is helpful and can help alleviate some of the symptoms. Sleeplessness, anxiety, anger are just some of the symptoms, and all are normal. If you feel like the symptoms aren't getting better, but they're getting worse, we can discuss a referral to a psychiatrist for medication to help you get through this.

An important aspect of understanding and recognizing effective crisis skills and characteristics is being able to critically reflect on your own working session or the observation of another’s session. This reflection helps you to evaluate which characteristics and skills are present, which need to be developed, and which can be expanded to the next level. In this Assignment, you assume the role of a mentor observing and reflecting on a newer social worker’s skills and characteristics.
Resources
Be sure to review the Learning Resources before completing this activity.
To prepare:
· Assume the role of a mentor social worker. You will be reviewing the work of a newer member on your team to provide feedback via email.
· First, watch the media Developing Crisis Skills to observe the social worker you are mentoring.
· Select three examples of actions the practitioner could have/should have done differently and consider why you chose each. Think about how ineffective crisis treatment techniques can negatively affect a client.
By day 7
Submit a document that contains both an email to your mentee and a reflection. Your ( [email protected] ) email should be 400–500 words in which you:
· Identify two or three examples of areas for improvement.
· Describe what characteristics or skills could be developed to improve these areas. Explain why these characteristics and skills are important in crisis treatment.
· Identify one or two areas of strength that the mentee shows in the session. Explain what makes these characteristics or skills important in crisis treatment.
· As this is an email to a mentee, you want to refer to resources, but you do not need to include APA citations or a reference list.
Your reflection should be a 1- to 2-page paper in which you:
· Briefly describe why you chose the strengths and areas for improvement that you did in your email to the mentee. What effects do specific characteristics and skills have during crisis treatment?
· Explain any insights you gained or conclusions you drew about your own characteristics and skills from completing the interactive media and hypothetical mentoring experience.
· Explain what steps you can take to develop the characteristics and/or skills that you should acquire or improve.
· Use the Learning Resources to support your assignment. Make sure to provide APA citations and a reference list.
