Beginning Nov. 28, Phase 3 of CMS Requirements of Participation (RoPs) will require SNFs to identify individuals with traumatic life events, both recent and in the past. Once identified, providers will be responsible for implementing a trauma-informed approach to resident care.

This brings up some complicated questions:

  • When does distress reach the threshold of trauma?
  • What’s the relevance of early childhood trauma?
  • Do difficult life experiences mean the resident has been traumatized?
  • If the resident has an acute or chronic trauma reaction, how should we respond?
  • What role does the resident’s resilience play in their trauma response?
  • How can we help our residents deal with these difficulties?

In this enlightening webinar, you’ll gain a new understanding of how trauma reactions develop and persist, as well as how to distinguish trauma responses from other mental health issues. We will also highlight ways of developing care for residents who have experienced trauma. Since trauma reactions have multiple causal factors, so do helpful clinical responses.
