MHCA Virtual Training - "The COVID-19 Pandemic: Addressing Trauma, Grief and Coping"
3/24/20213/25/2021

Published by: Elly Cabral

Overview:
Part I:
The trauma of the COVID-19 Pandemic has impacted people all around the world.
Everyone is in a sustained state of grief as we face an uncertain future. While
everyone is feeling the stress of separation and working to adjust to a new way of
living and working, the pandemic has caused many to also sink into depression and
despair. For residents, this is particularly challenging, as so many already grieve
the loss of their life as it once was. Understanding how grief is influencing the mood
and behavior of your community and how to develop effective, person-centered
interventions are the focus of this discussion.
Part II:
Traumatic events impact people in different ways. Recognizing changes in mood
and behavior as trauma-related is the challenge. This session highlights the signs
and symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD): what it is, what it looks
like, and the most effective ways to approach person-centered care in the face of
the COVID-19 Pandemic for residents and staff.
