June 27th: a day to shed light on the silent struggles of PTSD. Let's raise awareness, offer support, and break the stigma. 💚 #PTSDAwarenessDay Research suggests that rates of PTSD among first responders, including firefighters, police officers, and emergency medical personnel, can be significantly higher than in the general population. Some studies have indicated rates ranging from 6% to 32%. #firstresponders #firefighters #wildlifeofficers #EmergencyMedicalEMS #Lawenforcement #colliercounty #naples #naplesfl
