Trauma informed care aims to reduce the impact of trauma both for clients, their families and the staff working to support them. Being trauma informed is a key part of community transformation as it can lead to better outcomes for clients and improved well-being for staff. There are very high rates of PTSD within adult secondary care populations, yet many staff have had little training in how to assess and work with trauma.
There are very good evidence based treatments for trauma if this can be identified, yet many severe and enduring clients are not offered this support. This workshop will provide an overview of how to assess for PTSD, Complex PTSD and the related evidence based treatments. Practitioners will also have the opportunity to develop a range of practical techniques to help manage the common symptoms of PTSD and support clients with their recovery as well as practice good self-care.
