MODULE #4
A Commonsense Approach to Emotional Trauma and Why we ask "Why?”
Some life events can leave us depressed, despondent, and even suicidal but it can be especially hard for healthcare workers who suffer in silence. Also impacted by emotional trauma are our residents who feel the pain and loss of their former active life. With a commonsense approach, Judy Salisbury opens up an interactive discussion on the issue of Emotional Trauma; definition, recognition, options, with hints and tips to helping yourself or others. Moving beyond cold erudition, this workshop also includes a candid, intuitive discussion on why we ask, “Why?” when we experience emotionally painful, life-altering events.
(NOTE: This module is also available for fire, EMS, law enforcement, military personnel and general, secular, or faith based audiences as either a workshop or keynote address.)

I would recommend this training to any manager or employee that is interested in learning more about the bridge between EMS and Nursing. Your training made us think more critically about the way we deliver care and how we can innovate to become better at catching the early warning signs of an emergency situation. Thanks again!"
