This book examines how fifty police officers in South Australia keep well and bounce back from duty-related traumatic experience in the absence of practical, accessible and timely organisational support. It investigates mechanisms police officers presently use to normalise their duty-related traumatic experiences to preserve the delicate professional balance between coping and psychic numbing and avoid the much publicised perils of a PTSD diagnosis, while being appropriately responsive to colleagues, victims and survivors in their daily work environment.
