Psychological First Aid - How to get your mountaineering groove back

Rescue Radio by Portland Mountain Rescue

Created by: Mari Feher, Hosted by: Ania Wiktorowicz
What is Psychological First Aid? Whether you are affected by the pandemic, you've suffered an accident in the outdoors and it limits you from doing the things you love, many of us are having extra stress in our lives nowadays. When the level of stress exceeds what that person can cope with is when one develops a stress injury.
Learn how to notice the symptoms, how to diffuse it and how to recover from it so you can get back to the life you love, return to climbing and get back on that mountain trail.
Pearce Beissinger is Portland Mountain Rescues leader of PFA as well as our Assistant Medical Director. He is here to help you get back to that summit.
