Springdale Fire Department
Springdale Fire Department and I (Nikki Penn) are partnering together in an effort to give each Springdale firefighter the opportunity to achieve and maintain physical and mental wellness.
It is my belief that the stressors inherent with your job can be managed in such a way as to decrease burnout, sickness, constant anxiety and the lackluster for life that can develop.
Over the next year, we will be offering classes, counseling sessions, information through email blasts, and opportunities for your spouses and significant others to be involved.
If you see an area of mental wellness that is not being covered, please feel free to reach out to me. I would love to hear your thoughts and suggestions.
Things You Should Know About
The Arkansas State Firefighter Convention is coming up in June 8th-11th. I would love for you to stop by my class on Thursday!
Firefighter spouses and significant others have a Facebook page to get information, events, and updates. Sign up here.
Counseling sessions can be set up by emailing npenn@nikkipenn.com.
