❓ The course is a safe and supportive resourcing session for staff and volunteers in any role, where exposure to others distress, grief and trauma can be present through working roles. This training seeks to raise awareness and understanding of grief and trauma, particularly in Teenagers and Young Adults. Course content:

  • Develop awareness of the impact of loss and grief on individuals
  • Develop an understanding of the additional stresses brought about by sudden and/or traumatic deaths
  • Interactive discussions about the grief process and models that enhance individuals’ understanding of grief, including post pandemic impact on grief experiences
  • Develop understanding of the role that compassionate conversations have in supporting those impacted by distressing deaths
  • Practise considerations on delivering distressing news in the workplace / work role – such as the death of a service user


GRIEF HEALTH WARNING
Cruse Scotland training deliveries are interactive and will invite attendees to share experiences of grief and hear others experiences. Participants attending who identify as actively grieving are asked to consider their wellbeing needs before attending.
