Practicing School Psychology during a Pandemic: Lessons from Emergency Management
Hickey, Brendan
Communique, v49 n5 p1, 25-27 Jan-Feb 2021
The coronavirus is a pandemic, meaning that it affects the whole world, and as such it has made everyone into disaster responders. Pandemics typically last 12-18 months (Crimando, 2020a), so SARS CoV-1, and the disease that it causes, COVID-19, will probably continue to affect society in general and education in particular well into 2021. The field of emergency services has strategies for stress prevention and management and organizational structures that can be applied to education. This article outlines those strategies for various problems in school psychology practice.
