The psychological impact of road traffic collision rescues

Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service is supporting a research study conducted by the University of Kent’s School of Psychology to study the psychological impact of our rescue processes on casualties at road traffic collisions (RTC). 

Using their findings, the study aims to improve the psychological experience of casualties at road traffic collisions and in turn, RBFRS hopes to reduce the psychological symptoms experienced at the earliest opportunity.

If you’ve been involved in a RTC where the fire and rescue service have attended within the last 3-4 years and would like to help with this research, please visit the University of Kent’s website and email HSSfireandrescue@kent.ac.uk and a link will be sent with more information on the project and the pre-screening questions.
