Tuesday 23rd April 2024 9:15 - 16:00 FULL DAY 

Thursday 27th June 2024 and Wednesday 3rd July 2024 9:15 till 12:15

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 managers can significantly influence the stress levels in their teams
• What we mean by the terms Burnout, Secondary Trauma, Vicarious Trauma, Moral Injury and how to recognise and reduce it
• Who in the team might be vulnerable to secondary trauma and high stress levels and and how we can support the team effectively
• We will share good practice suggestions for managers from “checking in” to building positivity in the team
• We will practice techniques to support ourselves to increase our own resilience to stress
• How to access the "rest and repair" part of our nervous system for improved short and long term mental and physical health

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

Please note that whilst this course is free, failure to attend without 5 working days notice will result in a £50 non attendance fee.
