Trauma-Informed Care in Behavioural Health Services

Area: Trauma (trauma, suicide risk and challenging behaviors)

Can be used as part of a training dedicated to mental health care professionals, who work with patients, who had a previous traumatic experience. The theoretical part is related to the general knowledge that a professional should gain regarding the trauma. The practical part includes an assessment tool that could be used by the professionals, in order to evaluate the dysfunctionalities of an individual based on their previous traumatic experiences. The tool measures how affected is the individual from these experiences and how dysfunctional are their thoughts or behaviours.
