Resource matrix – Health and social service practitioners

Abstract

A matrix defining roles and responsibilities for a wide range of persons who are important health and human services resources.

Research has found that a community’s capacity to ‘bounce back’ from a disaster depends on strong social networks and the ability to return to normal life.

Community leaders are in a position to bring the community together and provide information and support following a traumatic event.

The resources listed below are designed for those working within their community to help support others in the preparedness and aftermath of a natural disaster or community trauma.

Use this resource in combination with the Resources provided on a tool with links to a range of resources. https://emergingminds.com.au/resources/resources-for-community-leaders-from-the-community-trauma-toolkit/
