The Cégep de la Gaspésie et des Îles has developed a tragic event intervention protocol, including postvention measures. The special feature of this protocol lies in its implementation. Each year, the protocol is updated and presented to each of the crisis management teams at the CEGEP’s four campuses. This training is led by the CEGEP psychologist. Participation is mandatory or strongly recommended.
Here are the different sections of the protocol:
- Introducing the crisis management team during a tragic event
- Points to consider and general principles to respect
- Interventions following the announcement of a suicide (postvention)
- Possible interventions after a suicide attempt
- Procedure checklist
- List of criteria for identifying an at-risk or vulnerable person
- Information sheet specific to each of the Cégep de la Gaspésie et des Îles campuses
- Sentinel list (updated)
- Tools for each of the 10 postvention measures
