In this episode of our Clinician Masterclass Series, we explore the sensitive topic of Suicide Psychological Autopsies with Elizabeth Pol, M.A., founder of Resilient Heroes, NFP, and a Chicago Police Officer. Elizabeth discusses the methodologies involved in conducting psychological autopsies, emphasizing the importance of privacy and dignity for the deceased and their families.

We learn how the insights gained from these autopsies can inform suicide prevention strategies, ultimately aiming to save lives. Elizabeth highlights Resilient Heroes as a crucial support system for first responders and clinicians, helping to combat stigma and foster understanding.

Join us for a special episode as we sit down with Chiefs Billy Goldfeder and Frank Leeb, authors of the groundbreaking book, 30 Fires You Must Know. We revisit one of the most pivotal incidents featured in their book: the 1975 New York Telephone Fire, a landmark event that underscores the severe consequences of occupational exposure to toxic smoke. Through exclusive clips from our past interview with the late Danny Noonan (first-due truck FDNY fireman) we explore firsthand accounts of battling this formidable blaze. Sadly, Danny Noonan passed away in July after a long battle with cancer, and his courage and legacy continue to educate and inspire the firefighting community.

We discuss the roadmap of “30 Fires”, providing a comprehensive look at pivotal fires throughout history. We also uncover common themes and patterns identified across these significant events. Chiefs Goldfeder and Leeb offer practical insights into how modern firefighters can apply lessons learned from these historical fires to enhance current safety practices and decision-making frameworks. Don't miss this opportunity to gain expert knowledge and strategies that could impact your firefighting approach today and in the future.
