RE: Out of the Blue

My wife thinks that police officers should be cross trained with social workers so they can understand more of the social and emotional issues that are happening before they go into a situation. Either that or at the very least have a social worker ride along with them. She is a bit biased though!

I think it has to start before that even. I reckon it is also in the hiring process. It is difficult to become police in Finland - a lot are rejected and there are a lot of aptitude tests to pass.

Yes, that could be part of it for sure.
