Training That Cares

Professor Siobhan O’Dwyer and her colleagues regularly deliver webinars and in-person training to help health and social care professionals, local authorities, and charities identify and support carers at-risk of suicide and homicide.

Current opportunities include:

• Understanding Suicide and Homicide Risk in Carers – A 90-minute webinar

• Preventing Suicide and Homicide in Carers – A one-day, face-to-face training session delivered in partnership with Carers Leeds

“Incredibly grateful for Siobhan’s time and expertise. I loved her training style and her passion for the topic. This is an important and under explored area and this training will help us deliver better outcomes for carers” – Training Feedback

“It filled a lot of gaps in my knowledge and really gave us a fire in our bellies to talk openly about suicide and homicide with the families we support” – Webinar Feedback

“I loved Siobhan’s attitude toward the day. It made it not as daunting as I thought it was going to be. I loved the fact that I embraced the role play when I thought I would hate it” – Training Feedback

“I know we saved two lives that day and because Siobhan had worked with our CEO to improve our policies and procedures alongside the training, I knew the organisation would support the decisions I made and make sure I was okay afterwards” – Training Feedback

“I conduct the parent carer assessments in our region and since that day I include a question about suicide in every assessment” – Webinar Participant
