What surport is out there for police officers when they see a murder or dead body?
Hi, You make it unclear if he was there as a part of the investigation after the fact or, if he was a witness. All police departments have a counselor or an acting physiologist on staff. Usually, if the ‘brass’ feel that the officer’s welfare is in question regarding what he saw or participated in, they will turn it over to internal affairs and they will require that he see the physiologist for evaluation. Then, what ever the physiologist recommends is what will happen. That could be counseling, time off etc. He can also go see the phycologist himself if he needs to. THey are always there to help him.
