About

PsySTART is a tool for mental health triage systems during disasters developed by WRAP-EM. It consists of four main components, including a cloud-based application for real-time mental health linkages. PsySTART assesses severe stressors, exposures, traumatic loss, persistent stress, injuries/illness, severe panic, and PTSD history without focusing on symptoms. This comprehensive system aids in making critical decisions and providing rapid mental health support during emergencies. Registration/login required for access.
