MANAGING CRITICAL INCIDENTS INVOLVING INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS MARYANN SEOW NATIONAL PRESIDENT

Lets have a go at defining a critical incident. One definition: “Any event which has a stressful impact sufficient enough to overwhelm the usually effective coping skills of either an individual or group. Critical incidents are typically sudden, powerful events which are outside the range of ordinary human experiences.”

ARE YOU READY AND PREPARED? EXAMPLES OF CRITICAL INCIDENTS Critical incidents are not limited to, but could include: missing students; severe verbal or psychological aggression; death, serious injury or any threat of these; natural disaster; issues such as domestic violence, sexual assault, drug or alcohol abuse; Non-life threatening events could still qualify as critical incidents. ARE YOU READY AND PREPARED?

WHY DO YOU NEED TO BE PREPARED? More effective management Brand and reputational management Statutory requirements Well-being responsibilities

GUIDELINES Have a Plan Single point of referral A response team with visible leadership Information gathering and verification Connect and support affected individuals Communication protocols – internal and external Use all resources available to you Record keeping

IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS Clear roles are important Develop staff skills Timeliness of communication is critical Cross-team communication and collaboration is vital Involve community groups for additional support Partner with diplomatic representatives Establish relationships with authorities Keep in touch with the students – build trust

Social media – managing the message AH - YES – BUT … Social media – managing the message Other providers – students have friends Funding/finances – support, contingencies Excessive demands – when to say ‘No’ Too much ‘help’ –managing goodwill Workload management – staff wellbeing

THANK YOU MARY ANN SEOW NATIONAL PRESIDENT PRESIDENT@ISANA.ORG.AU
