Operational Stress First Aid (OSFA)

Is a flexible multi-step process for the timely assessment and pre-clinical care of stress reactions or injuries in individuals or units with the goals to preserve life, prevent further harm, and promote recovery. Required for DR Chaplains and recommended for all people working in a stressful environment.

Note: This is one of the required trainings to serve as a DR Chaplain. You will also need a recommendation from your pastor and approval from UT-ID leadership. To serve nationally as a Disaster Relief Chaplain, there is an application and similar approvals as the UT-ID approval. There is not an assertion that these classes will be accepted in other chaplain services.
