AREA AGENCY ON AGING EDUCATIONAL SEMINAR

Let's Undress Stress 

                                                                                                         THURSDAY, APRIL 26, 2018

                                                                   DESCRIPTION
This workshop will assist in the understanding of various symptoms and chronic manifestations of stress and their common sources.  Stress affects clients and families in their abilities to cope with and implement skills to deal with the problems and dilemmas they may face.  The professional will be aided to explore the role of attitudes and perceptions in the development and management of stress and responses to it including how to affect change and teach these skills to clients in varied and effective methods.  Participants will understand the need to help others develop the inner resources to apply and strengthen the ability to manage stress in their lives more healthfully and productively.  By understanding the ongoing impact that stress has on people's lives and the importance of developing adaptive strategies, participants will be better equipped to assist the individuals that they are engaged with toward safer and more positive behavior and development.

                                                                OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of this program, participants will be able to:
*  Identify major concepts, manifestations, and definitions of the stress-response phenomenon
*  Relate the importance of attitudes and perceptions to the development and management of stress
* Identify positive coping mechanisms and stress management techniques that can be used to deal with and alleviate stress - and how best to convey and teach these clients and families
*  Identify the impact of stress on safety issues and concerns
