Trauma Risk Management (TRiM) Webinar

For Trainers and Trainees 

Thursday 24th March

6pm to 7.30pm 

MaxCourse ID:SW254


Trauma Risk Management (TRiM) is a peer support tool developed in the UK Armed Forces to help staff prepare for and recover from potentially traumatic events. It has successfully been introduced into healthcare during the last 10 years and involves implementing a TRiM framework within a hospital or healthcare organisation. Such a framework includes:

  • TRiM ‘practitioners’ (frontline staff who have had additional specific TRiM training)
  • A small number of TRiM managers who oversee and organise the TRiM process
  • A TRiM administrator who does most of the organisational tasks
  • Clinical psychologists/Employee Assistant Programme team or similar who look after any staff, identified by the TRiM process following a potentially traumatic event, as being those who may benefit from professional help.

During this webinar, we will hear from Professor Greenberg, consultant occupational and forensic psychiatrist at Kings College London, who was one of the original team who designed and set up TRiM in the military – he will talk about why he did this and how TRiM works in the Armed Forces. We will then hear from Dr Mark Stacey, consultant anaesthetist in Cardiff, about how TRiM works in healthcare and the benefits of having such a system. Finally, Dr Fiona Kelly, a consultant in anaesthesia and intensive care medicine in Bath, will explain why TRiM was set up in Bath, how it works there and the benefits that it has brought to the staff.
