Each year in Western Australia, thousands of people are impacted by road trauma. Responding or being first on scene at a car crash, losing family and friends, dealing with injuries, caring for those injured, causing a crash or witnessing a serious crash can have a devastating and enduring impact.

Road Trauma Support WA will be delivering an information session for professionals including emergency services personnel (paid and volunteer) who may be exposed to road trauma as part of their work, and who would like to know more about how the Road Trauma Support WA service can support those who have been impacted by a road crash.

The information session will help you get better informed on:

• The impact of road trauma
• Common reactions experienced after a crash
• Understanding grief, loss, and trauma after a crash
• Where and how to access support for yourself and others.
