The Eastern Division Patroller Stress Awareness Team has created pages that offer important and valuable information about stress awareness for Ski Patrollers and their families. They enable patrollers to understand stress injury better – it’s MOI and signs and symptoms – and thereby be better prepared to help themselves and their fellow patrollers respond to, and recover from, exposure to on-the-hill trauma.
