If you work or volunteer in an environment in which your colleagues, community members, or service users have been impacted by traumatic events, you may notice changes in behavior and performance that are harmful to the individual, their colleagues, or fellow community members; and consequently, to organisational or community wellbeing. The impacts of trauma can vary greatly between individuals. Some people may appear outwardly affected, while in others, the signs may not be immediately obvious - but over time, can become evident.
A Trauma-Informed Care organisation promotes wellbeing by ensuring that its policies, procedures and environments are mindful of people’s trauma histories and support the physical, psychological and emotional safety of its team members. Phoenix Australia’s Trauma-Informed Care course has been developed by mental health clinical experts and informed by research, practice knowledge, and input from trauma survivors and teaches the Principles of Trauma Informed Care and how these can be applied to support organisational and community wellbeing in the context of the pandemic and other disasters.
