Скачать или смотреть CAREgivers Short | Documentary About Secondary Trauma on Professional Caregivers

Through dramatic personal stories, Portraits of Professional CAREgivers probes the emotionally risky aspects of professional
care providers. We ask the question: How is the care provider affected emotionally and physically, and who helps our helpers?

Through the poignant stories of the professionals, the audience will discover that engaged empathic caregiving can be a significant occupational hazard; we explore the painful and human sides of these professions and the professionals’ response to trauma known as Compassion Fatigue or Secondary Traumatic Stress. We also recognize the profound meaning caregivers may experience in their high risk work and how some progressive agencies are beginning to develop essential structures for staff support.
