Sunday, October 29, 2023
7:30 AM – 9:00 AM CST
Location: Room 210-211, 2nd Floor, CHI Convention Center
Are you interested in learning more about Communities of Practice (COP)? Experiencing one in action? Developing a new one? Then this session is for you! We will be reviewing how COPs are currently functioning within the Academy of Pediatric Physical Therapy, steps to creating a new COP and providing you with an opportunity to experience a live meeting of the Trauma Informed Care COP. The focus of this meeting will be on Secondary Traumatic Stress (STS) - what it is, how it has affected you, ways the Academy can provide support and education, and steps you can take to build professional resilience and protect yourself from the ill effects of secondary traumatic stress.

Learning Objectives:

  • Describe the steps to developing a COP within the Academy of Pediatric Physical Therapy
  • Describe the risk factors for Secondary Traumatic Stress in Pediatric Physical Therapist
  • Devise a self-care plan to protect yourself from the detrimental effects of secondary traumatic stress.
