Senior Enablement Occupational Therapist at Hertfordshire County Council. Supporting older people maintain or improve their independence and quality of life by providing personalised interventions.
After a week off with covid. I was glad to return to work to attend the Hertfordshire County Council Adult Care Services #FestivalOfPractice This is the first time in 8 years, I’ve been able to invested so much time attending the event. Simply because previously, I was too busy ‘working’ to concentrate on the importance of great practice. *Day 1* The 1st session: The impact of armed political conflict on people we support and our workforce by Prof. Shulamit Ramon. One thing I remember is a slide saying “We have a professional duty to provide support to anyone who needs it, even if they are a member of a group defined as the enemy” The discussion of #resilience #trauma #children It’s important that we know how to respond to the needs of people, those seeking sanctuary as well as professionals. There was plenty of research about the global minority. My 2nd session: from our legendary Dr Tanya Moore presenting: Relationships and Reciprocity - Where next for Strengths Based Approaches in Adult Social Care? All this time I thought I understood the terminology #StrengthBasedApproach🤦🏾♀️ Obviously as an Occupational Therapist this is our standard practice 🦸🏾♀️Therapeutic Use Of Self. It’s about relationships; these are important to the understanding of our people. #RelationalConnection it does not have to take forever to build a relationship with someone if you have the skills to build rapport.

The old adage holds true: “If you don’t take care of yourself, you can’t effectively care for others.” Probation officers are exposed to repeated stress and trauma (both primary and secondary) throughout their careers. These public servants are required to perform standard “law-enforcement” functions, while also supporting rehabilitative efforts and establishing strong working relationships with formerly incarcerated individuals and their families. The job requires a unique knowledge of law and human behavior — and although the duties can be extremely rewarding — the position is also physically, mentally, and emotionally taxing. Probation officers serve as the “eyes and ears” of the court (or releasing authority) and they assume a high-level of responsibility for managing risk to the public and addressing the human service needs of persons realeased to the comminty. For perspective — in an 8-hour timeframe — a probation officer might: 1) Meet with a person under supervision to celebrate their success in substance use treatment; 2) Find housing and food options for a person who was just released from incarceration; 3) Draft a warrant for an individual who poses imminent risk to the community, and 4) Help a person on their caseload understand the impact of thinking on antisocial behavior (i.e., cognitive-behavioral interventions). Keep in mind, all this is occurring in challenging budgetary times where a general officer’s caseload can reach 100 people or more (depending on the agency’s size and location). Probation officers don’t get enough credit for the critical services that they offer to society — but I’m glad to see San Diego County prioritizing their well-being through formalized policies. I hope more agencies follow suit.
Supporting the physical, mental, and emotional health of our public safety employees is fundamental to creating safer communities, building meaningful relationships, and providing better services to the residents of San Diego County. I'm proud that last week, the Board of Supervisors approved a policy I introduced along with Chairwoman Nora E Vargas to enhance wellness and mental health for our San Diego County Probation staff. This action will help ensure probation officers are equipped with the necessary resources, support, and organizational conditions to do their valued work — helping youth and adults restore their lives and become contributing members of the San Diego County community.

"findings based on interviews over a 10-month period in 2021-2022 with 20 participants with experience of mental health-related police intervention in Australia." That's it, 20 people! This research is so flawed. Doesn't even mention if law enforcement receives proper training. The title of these articles can be so misleading. #mentalhealth #corresponse #lawenforcement #training
