Trauma Informed Care

These are free events designed for members of the public clinical mental health workforce in Victoria, (staff employed at Area Mental Health Services, Forensicare or mental health staff from RCH) and lived experience workforces (LEW) working in either public clinical or community mental health state-funded roles. Other workforce in partner organisations, such as AOD organisations or ACCHOs, may sometimes be eligible. Please note, if you do register for an event and it is not clear you are part of the intended audience, your registration will be confirmed two weeks prior to the event start date, or earlier.

Trauma-informed care (TIC) is a framework aiming to ensure that individuals with a history of trauma have safe and positive experiences of service delivery. This workshop explores the nature of trauma and its psychological impacts as well as the key principles on which TIC is based. During this workshop participants will be exploring a range of strategies in working with consumers to maintain trauma aware and safe practice.
