Abstract
The findings confirm an increased risk for mental health problems also for canine search and rescue teams. Mission-related correlates as well as debriefing sessions were narrowly associated with PTSD. The results point to the importance of further investigating the needs of this special rescue profession and the identification of risk factors for PTSD and mental health distress specifically in this sample that can be targeted in interventions.
