SUMMARY:Swinburne University of Technology\, Wellbeing Clinic for Older Adults |  Trauma-focussed treatments with older adults
DESCRIPTION:This webinar will describe what is known from the research about how trauma presents in older adults and those with dementia\, provide practical advice for delivering trauma-focussed treatments\, and discuss adaptations to therapy that may be required for this population. Attendees will gain pragmatic skills in assessing and responding to trauma-related needs. More than 70% of older people have experienced a psychologically traumatic event in their lives. Events that occur in late-life can trigger traumatic stress symptoms\, and older people can experience the re-emergence of previously well-managed traumatic stress. Symptoms may appear differently than in younger people\, especially in the presence of co-morbid cognitive impairment. It is essential that mental health professionals understand how to identify\, assess\, and treat traumatic stress symptoms. \nAbout the Presenter \nMonica Cations is a registered psychologist and epidemiologist who has worked in the ageing and dementia field for over a decade. Her research is translational with a focus on psychological wellbeing in aged care environments and young people using aged care. Monica is a Senior Research Fellow in the College of Education\, Psychology and Social Work at Flinders University\, supported by an NHMRC/MRFF Emerging Leadership Investigator Grant.

SUMMARY:Gwandalan National Palliative Care Project | Torres Strait Islander Palliative Care Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Gwandalan: Supporting Palliative Care for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Communities \nSpirituality plays an important role in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture with many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people possessing strong beliefs about the existence of life beyond the physical realm. Life and death are viewed as a continuous cycle from birth to death to re-birth; the life\, death\, life pattern. \nIn some Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Communities\, speaking of death is considered taboo. Given the cultural sensitivities surrounding death\, it is important that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultural beliefs and practices are acknowledged and accommodated during the palliative and end-of-life care journey. \n‘Gwandalan’ is a word from the Darkinjung and Awaba language meaning rest\, peace or resting place. For this project\, the Gwandalan word represents the spiritual aspect of the palliative and end-of-life journey\, with the hope that the spirit is at rest and peace as a result of good palliative care and a ‘good death’.
