Review: "The following paper outlines a model for psychosocial support to those affected by an emergency event. It addresses issues of intake and needs assessment, service provision and coordination, counselling and community development. The model aims to ensure that personal support services are integrated into an overall recovery strategy and will form the basis of State Personal Support Arrangements under the State Emergency Recovery Arrangements. It describes how personal support services will be coordinated at a state level and will inform regions and local government of key elements that need to be included in their particular recovery plans." -- p. 1.
