Annual Police Wellness Checks

• There is a growing interest in the value of Annual Psychological Wellness (APW) checks for police officers, communicators, and their loved ones (PSP+L).

• Broadly, the goals of these APW’s include a review of the member’s MH; a “gateway” to build a relationship with a trusted clinician/ agency; provide any relevant feedback to the PSP+L.

• PSP+L are often encouraged to seek out APW’s, and police services increasingly encourage or require the completion of them for their members.
