Trauma can profoundly shape the lives of older adults, influencing their physical health, emotional resilience, and daily behaviors. In caring for others, long-term care professionals are also routinely exposed to high levels of emotional stress and secondary trauma, leading to compassion fatigue and burnout. We are very excited to partner with LeadingAge Nebraska to bring a 3-part webinar series to equip participants with practical strategies to recognize trauma, respond with empathy, and build resilience at every level of care.  

  • August 8: Trauma-Informed Care for Older Adults 
  • August 15: Trauma-Informed Care for the Long-Term Care Workforce 
  • August 22: Trauma-Informed Leadership in Long-Term Care

Please note the registration fee covers attendance at all three sessions for ONE attendee. Registration is not available for individual webinars. Substitutes are welcome. Registration Deadline: August 4, 2025
