Responding to Trauma for Frontline Workers

Trauma for Frontline Workers

This one-day workshop is an introduction to the various types of trauma Frontline workers often face in the course of their day to day work. From acute to complex, direct and indirect trauma and the effects for both service users and frontline staff themselves.

This course highlights issues Frontline workers may face, empowering them to recognise and respond to Vicarious Trauma, Compassion Fatigue and Burnout with Compassion Satisfaction and Vicarious Resilience, introducing new concepts like Moral Injury and Repair, with practical and adaptable tools to mitigate the effects of trauma and discuss and examine strategies for self-care.
