Nutrition for First Responders

First responders are frequently exposed to stressful occurrences, such as potentially life-threatening circumstances and coworkers and bystanders' serious injuries and fatalities. Evidence suggests that the prevalence of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among first responders is significantly higher than in the general population. PTSD affects 18-24 percent of dispatchers and 35 percent of police officers. To cope with the stress and trauma they face daily, many first responders self-medicate with alcohol or other self-destructive and abusive habits. Knowing that you are stressed and dealing with it as you respond can help you stay healthy, allowing you to continue to aid those in need. Self-Care Tools 1. Create a life for yourself outside of law enforcement. Bucket-fillers make time for personal relationships and hobbies outside of work. Don't put your husband, children, or friends on the back burner for business. You may need to organize planned activities with family and...

Alec Baldwin interrogated by police after Rust shooting

Law enforcement officials released a trove of video evidence Monday in the ongoing investigation into actor and producer Alec Baldwin's fatal shooting of a cinematographer on a Western film set in October. Lapel camera recordings taken by a commanding officer as he arrives at a film-set ranch where medics are tending to the wounded, with an evacuation helicopter whirring overhead, were released by the Santa Fe County Sheriff's Office. The armorer for the movie production breaks down in tears while looking for the gun. Other videos show investigators debriefing Baldwin within hours of the fatal shooting, talking with him inside a small office, and rehearsal clips of Baldwin in costume practicing a quick-draw gun maneuver. "I'm the person who had the gun in the scene," Baldwin says to a deputy working to tape off the scene in one video. Sheriff Adan Mendoza of Santa Fe County said that his agency's investigation is still open and ongoing as it awaits the FBI...

All levels of government require law enforcement professionals. Federal authorities enforce federal laws, whereas state agencies enforce state and federal laws, and local agencies are responsible for enforcing federal, state, and local laws. Police officers protect the public by investigating crimes and apprehending criminals. They may go by different designations, such as officer or investigator agent. The Federal Bureau of Investigation is the primary law enforcement agency of the federal government (FBI). The Drug Enforcement Administration, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives, the Bureau of Diplomatic Security, the Border Patrol, the Federal Air Marshals, and the Secret Service are other federal law enforcement agencies. Other government agencies, such as the US Postal Service and the US Forest Service, employ law enforcement officers, although their primary missions are not law enforcement.   Click here to Join Our Members-only Academy and Recieve Exclusiv...

How to beat burnout in a police officer

Click Link To Gain Access to Storable Foods Teaching yourself to recognize and manage burnout is essential to the overall well-being and stability of your work and life. In our experience, the term “burnout” has negative connotations, especially in law enforcement. However, in other professions - especially those where you become a professional caregiver - burnout is widely accepted as a fact.   As an LEO, you are also a defender because you are a defender of justice, civil rights, and the public who depend on you. You are responsible for providing services to those who directly or indirectly request your help and support. You help out and, as in any maid profession, you are prone to burnout. Your greatest risk of burnout is the near-constant exposure to the "fly or fight response" inherent in work. Here are the common causes of adrenaline: Running lights and sirens Engaging with the agitated, angry, and irrational Being constantly hypervigilant Add the actual tension of poli...
