Monterey Park’s Fire Department responders toare on a positive path to recovery after the emotional jolt of tragedy, city officials said this week.
But officials acknowledged the emotional toll remained heavy for those who were at the scene, with the department’s chief concerned about the “everlasting effects leading to an end of a career.” Hallock said that there is no deadline for return to duty and the choice to continue to use mental health services and leave is voluntary. While the aftermath was rocky, Hallock added that the response from his team was “textbook.”
