PROTECTING THE NHS FROM PTSD
APA, have published the 'Post Trauma Care Response' A Working Proposal. Created in open collaboration with Therapeutic professionals irrespective of membership affiliations.
The Post Trauma Care Response, is designed to support Medical and Care Professionals, respond to the impacts of mass trauma caused by C-19. While also ensuring the protection and ethical integrity of the therapeutic professional and the sector as a whole.
The Post Trauma Care Response, creates an effective and sustainable framework that avoids Therapeutic Services becoming a wholly voluntary delivery service.
APA is delighted that qualified therapeutic professionals, with affiliations to various different Membership Bodies have taken part in shaping this framework and we would like to thank everyone that has taken part and contributed.
APA offers The Post Trauma Care Response, openly so Medical and Care Professionals can see that the Therapeutic Community has come together to offer meaningful support, with the sole purpose of ensuring the best possible care is available, as they experience the impacts of mass trauma caused by Covid-19.
The Post Trauma Care Response is the only proposal presented to date, that considers the long term need for support of Medical and Care professionals. Without a change of systemic approach and engagement with the therapeutic community, the NHS will not have the capacity to manage the impact of a potential PTSD collapse within its Medical or Care teams.
