Canadian front line workers, including those in the emergency management field can be deployed or activated during prolonged emergencies like the response to the current pandemic. As we work our way through this emergency we need to explore ways to make sure front line workers are resilient and mentally able to handle the stresses and demands of the next phase of the pandemic.
