the topic you're looking for. If we can help you, we will. After all, we are
all stronger with the help of our friends.
Care for the Caregiver
"Taking Care of You: Stress Solutions", "Who's Stuff is This Anyway?" are interactive workshops which
help participants to manage the stress of dealing with victims, survivors
and incidents involving trauma. Stress avoidance and reduction techniques
are key to long-term health.
How to Deal Effectively with Victims/Survivors
This workshop trains clients to communicate sensitively and appropriately
with victims or survivors of all forms of trauma without further trauma or vitimization.
On-Scene Response to Critical or Traumatic Events
Canuckcare interveners are experienced, highly-trained professionals who
specialize in defusing volatile situations and debriefing employees after
traumatic events such as robberies, assaults, deaths or terminal illnesses.
Studies show that early intervention is helpful to both employees and
management accelerating healing time, minimizing workplace disruption and
improving the corporate image. Canuckcare is available to respond to these
situations on short notice, and at a variety of locations (the workplace or
a neutral site depending on the circumstances.) We'll perform an objective
evaluation, provide a trauma response component to your existing Employee
Assistance Program and follow up where appropriate. We'll also provide
telephone consultation and assist with referrals to other service providers
where necessary. All of these responses are provided on a fee for service
basis or in the form of a contract.
Death Notification with Professionalism and Compassion
This unique interactive workshop provides step-by-step instruction on the delivery
of death notifications. Notifiers will learn to offer the most sensitive,
informative and compassionate message possible by preparing properly and
providing all available information to the victimıs family/friends. Theyıll
learn sensitive behavioural techniques for everything from introducing
oneself into the situation to offering ongoing support and exiting the
environment. Our experts will also discuss the advantages of a good working
relationship between mental health professionals, volunteers and law
enforcement personnel. Finally, Canuckcare will offer debriefing techniques
to ensure that Notifiers and their partners remain well after their task is
complete.
