Our Holocaust Survivor PCTI training for caregivers provides them with an essential understanding of trauma as a whole, the unique effects of Holocaust-originated trauma on the aging process, and guidance on identifying triggers to avoid, resulting in:

• More patient-centered care,

• Enhanced emotional well-being, and

• Increased trust between the survivor and caregiver.

The three main goals of the program are:

• Increased understanding of PCTI principles and applications to Holocaust survivors,

• Increased training capability of homecare agencies with a train-the-trainer approach, and

• Increased survivor satisfaction with homecare services.

This PCTI training will become part of our Holocaust Survivor Program core offering and provide better PCTI care to support homecare program expansion.
