Resiliency After Violent Death: Lessons for Caregivers

The purpose of this program is to provide clinicians, social workers, clergy and caregivers engaged in long term support with families after a violent death, helpful strategies to diminish the emotional distress of violent dying bereavement.This program demonstrates how to shift the psychological focus from the drama and the spectacle of violent dying for loved ones "stuck" in their bereavement and to shift the caregivers' attention from an over emphasis on crisis support to the longer term psychological and spiritual needs of loved ones - months and years after the violent death. The panel members, Dr. Ted Rynearson, Dr. Charles Figley, Dr. Alison Salloum and Janice Harris Lord, ACSW discuss three common, psychological responses to a violent death.
