Amy will discuss trauma informed care in the education opportunity on May 5th with a webinar and 12th with Q&A.
May 5, 2020 | 2:00 – 3:00 PM – Webinar
May 12, 2020 | 2:00 – 3:00 PM Follow up Q&A Session
Trauma has become almost a universal experience. The effect of past trauma(s) can influence how we respond and connect to others and our environment. Long-term care staff must become knowledgeable in a trauma informed care approach. A careful assessment, knowledge of triggers, and de-escalation techniques are essential. This presentation will address some ways we can prevent re-traumatization and support mental health well-being. Case studies will be utilized to promote active learning and self-reflection.
A week after this session we will be having a follow up Q&A session. You must have taken part in the Webinar in order to be part of the Q&A session. Please submitt any questions you have for Amy Siple to Nicole@leadingagekansas.org and Amy will take additional questions during that time.
