Speaker: Dr. Anna Fitch Courie, DNP, RN, PHNA-BC, Director, Responder Wellness, FirstNet Program at AT&T Description: First responders experience health risk factors that far exceed the general population – simply by the nature of their work. And there are different levels of intervention to help influence health, according to the socio-ecological model of health and behavior change.
These include the individual; the family, unit or group; the organization and community; and federal and national levels. The FirstNet Health and Wellness Program, created by FirstNet, Built with AT&T, adopted the evidenced based approach to addressing health promotion at the organizational level.
We’ll talk through different strategies for addressing first responder health and wellness. And we’ll demonstrate the key components of the FirstNet Health and Wellness Coalition. This presentation will: 1) Describe the framework of how to engage in supporting First Responder Health and Wellness 2) Describe the key components of the coalition 3) Demonstrate how FirstNet, Built with AT&T, used the existing infrastructure of FirstNet Builder, AT&T, to support first responder health and wellness
