Abstract:
Teachers as vital instruments for rehabilitation have to be equipped with approaches as students seek recuperation in schools after a disaster. When Super Typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan) devastated Eastern Visayas, teachers became vulnerable to posttraumatic stress disorder (PSTD). Compassionate Reach International’s (CRI), an American faith-based organization; responded to elementary schools training 27 teachers from 12 elementary schools of Dulag North District to become psychological first aiders to their students and among themselves, exposing to Critical Incident Stress Management modules. Using latent content analysis, pre-intervention interviews showed manifestations of physical, emotional, cognitive, behavioral and spiritual problems among respondents. After three days of exposure, interviews manifested increased self-efficacy, self-esteem, ease, patience, improved relationship with others and deeper faith in God. CRI provided tools such as art materials, punching balloons, board-simulations and introduced techniques on ventilation and validation, healthy grieving, breathing, relaxation, role plays, and games.
