The Stress Continuum
The Stress Continuum is a simple tool for self-awareness that allows us to make informed decisions and manage risks. This tool was first created by the US Marine Corps for use in combat settings, but has been adapted for use in many industries.
Individuals closer to green are ready to respond when stressful situations arise, and less likely to develop stress injuries. This helps teams manage risk by distributing stressors to those most resourced to respond.
proper training is essential to prevent burnout
and manage risk of stress injury.
Our training program has been studied and shown to mitigate stress injury and burnout, and is quickly becoming standard for industry leaders in alpine rescue, emergency response, and the outdoor industry. If your team is using the stress continuum, they should have access to training to set them up for success.
