Central Huron Fire Chief Dave Renner and firefighter Kyle Kruse spoke to council about the concept at council's May 16 meeting saying the need for such a program is present in any community served by first responders. Renner told councillors that the topic of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among first responders is something that has been in the news a lot lately — and for good reason. He said it's crucial that first responders are assisted due to the stressful nature of their job. The cost to fully treat a first responder with PTSD, he said, can range anywhere from between $1.5 and $2.5 million. The key, he said, is to help first responders within 72 hours of a stress -inducing incident. Kruse spoke about a recent incident where a young girl took her own life. He said he could see the impact the incident had on his fellow firefighters and saw the need for a stress management team. After working as a London firefighter on the busiest engine in the city, Kruse, a Clinton native, returned to Huron County and became a volunteer member of the Bayfield Fire Department. He became interested in the topic of PTSD after seeing its effects, saying that first responders are twice as likely to develop PTSD and that suicide is prevalent in first responders who suffer from PTSD. There is no cure, he said, and even with the reality of limited resources in rural Ontario, there are still ways to roll out the program, featuring a peer -based counselling team. Once there's a particularly traumatic call in the municipality, he said, the volunteer -based team would be deployed within 72 hours. The time period is essential, he said. He likened it to holding a water bottle. The bottle isn't heavy, he said, and the task is not difficult, but over time, it becomes harder and harder, similar to PTSD. If first responders can talk to their peers anonymously within those first 72 hours, the threat of PTSD can drop drastically. Costs associated with the team, Kruse said, would be minimal. Volunteer members would need to complete a two-day course aimed specifically at counselling for first responders and they would need a small budget for operating costs. New Councillor Adam Robinson, who is a Huron County paramedic, said the teams are great and serve a very important purpose in the life cycle of a first responder. He spoke in favour of the program. Councillors were generally in favour of the program, but stopped short of officially approving it, saying it would return to a future meeting, where it would be up for adoption. The long weekend As has been tradition for a number of years, the Huron Bay Co-op in Belgrave held a special barbecue to help mark the Victoria Day long weekend as the unofficial start of the summer. This year, the Belgrave 4-H members were employed to help out and serve up food to hungry diners who happened to stop in. From left: Dawson Coultes, Ryan Smuck and Shelby Higgins.
