Crisis Response

I just got accepted into the Volunteer Crisis Response Program for a City nearby. I've been wanting to do this for years and finally went for it. I went on a ride along a few weeks ago and got a good taste of what the Crisis Response Unit deals with. We had 2 "code" calls and had to be with the families in the quiet room in the hospital to be with them while we waited for the Dr. to come in and report. It was a very surreal experience. It was the first time that I have dealt that closely with death. I had my interview last Monday and have been accepted into the program. I start training on October 6th. As part of training we have to become First Aid and CPR certified. It has been a few years since I've been certified so I will be glad for that. Even though we are required to be certified we won't be able to use it. I'm excited and scared to volunteer. On one hand I think it will be good for me to get out there and do something for the community but on the other hand it might be hard to have to be involved with the trauma that we will be dealing with. I'll just have to see how it goes and find out if I am able to do what needs to be done.
Jeremy wanted me to clarify what a "code" call means. It means that someone has passed away and we need to go be there for the family or the ones involved.
