Considering and Improving Staff Wellbeing from a Trauma Informed Approach - a one day course for Managers

Thursday 9th November 2023

Thursday 29th February 2024

09.30 till 16.30

via MS Teams

Thurrock LSCP are pleased to offer Managers the opportunity attend this free training. 

This course has been developed for Managers to support understanding and recognition of the impact of stress on wellbeing, including the potential for Vicarious and Secondary Trauma.  For staff working with a traumatised population, Rachel Remen describes the inevitable impact as .... "It's like walking through water and expecting not to get wet"

Research has shown that there are techniques and support strategies that Managers and organisations can take to decrease likelihood of Vicarious and Secondary Trauma, increase resilience and wellbeing and improve staff wellbeing, performance and retention.

This course will cover:

• What scientific evidence has taught us about stress in the mind and body
• How working with other people's stress and trauma can impact on staff stress levels
• How to have wellbeing conversations with staff
• What we mean by the terms Burnout, Secondary Trauma, Vicarious Trauma, Moral Injury
• How and why people might experience these states
• How we might recognise and potentially reduce the symptoms in our teams and in ourselves
• What "good" supervision might look like and practicing reflective conversations
• How to increase positivity in the workplace

This course will take place via Teams and will be a mixture of pre-recorded material, a handbook and live interactive sessions.
