Trauma Risk Management – Managers Course
Duration: 2 days
Delivery Method: Face to Face or Virtual
Course Capacity: Variable
Course Description
Where organisations adopt Trauma Risk Management (TRiM), it is essential that clear management support, policy, and leadership are in place. Without these, TRiM initiatives often struggle to succeed. The TRiM Manager plays a pivotal role in ensuring consistency and effectiveness, acting as the link between TRiM Practitioners, senior management, and wider staff wellbeing and welfare functions.
This advanced course is designed for qualified TRiM Practitioners who are moving into TRiM management roles. It focuses on developing the knowledge and skills required to supervise TRiM practitioners, implement TRiM policy and procedure, and oversee effective responses to traumatic incidents in the workplace.
The emphasis is on supervision, practitioner welfare, and monitoring the effectiveness of TRiM interventions. Managers will learn how to build cohesive and resilient TRiM teams, support staff following a traumatic event, and ensure best practice in line with organisational wellbeing objectives.
Course Aim
To equip TRiM Managers with the advanced skills needed to:
- Implement and uphold Trauma Risk Management policy and procedure.
