Description
Grief is a natural response to loss. How is grief of the professional different? Does it affect our work? Does it affect the professional personally? What do you do with the feelings and effects it produces? This workshop is aimed at addressing the grief of the professional and techniques for coping. If you work in a field that results in multiple client losses due to death this can be an invaluable opportunity to learn and grow personally and professionally.
Objectives
- Review basic information related to grief and loss including models and theories.
- Define disenfranchised grief and review how this type of grief relates to children and families.
- Discuss the difference between depression and grief.
- Review several tools social workers can utilize to assist clients with grief and loss issues.
- Participate in two activities to further relate to and understand the grief and loss process.
Target Audience
This training is for caregivers, nurses, socials workers and any other professionals who work with many populations.
