Traumatic stress is inherent in our work as Providers and is significantly compounded by the multiple issues resulting from COVID-19. This current crisis has escalated Compassion Fatigue AKA Secondary and Vicarious Trauma, burnout, frustration, empathetic strain and emotional exhaustion. Through funding provided by the ACEs Aware Initiative, Beverly Kyer is providing training on mitigating Compassion Fatigue to build emotional and mental resilience so Providers can attend to their own well-being and continue providing critical services.
We’re honored to be a part of the work that ACEs Aware is doing to expand awareness of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and toxic stress in California and the use of trauma-informed care. There has never been a more critical time and need to inform providers about ACEs and the benefits of administering the ACEs tool with their patients. Combining these two bodies of science can greatly promote wellness for patients and providers alike.
