“…Therefore, practitioners should seek specific professional development in order to provide appropriate intervention. Learning may draw from areas of counselling with similar dynamic needs such as trauma, where therapists are expected to work within and tolerate ambiguity that arises from working in an emotionally intense area (Brown & Courtois, 2019). As the prevalence of dementia increases, it is important that the unique skills and understanding required to work with those with the condition are incorporated into counselling curricula.…”

| Dementia as an area of opportunityDementia affects 46 million people worldwide, which equates to around 7% of the population over 60 years old (Prince et al., 2016).As the condition progresses, aspects of daily life can become more difficult and people living with dementia often require support from family members and healthcare professionals. As there is currently no cure for dementia, non-pharmacological treatments and areas of support are imperative in maintaining the quality of life of people living with the condition. These treatments are beneficial and may be cost-effective (Olazarán et al., 2010). Certain types of dementia, most commonly Alzheimer's disease and fronto-temporal dementia, are associated with problems with emotional regulation, although the individual does not always notice this themselves (Goodkind et al., 2010). Many people with a broad range of dementia diagnoses experience anxiety and depression (Orgeta et al., 2014), and identifying and treating these symptoms should be included as an integral component of any post-diagnostic support for people with dementia

“…One of the diagnostic criteria for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) presented in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (American Psychiatric Association, 2013) describes the possibility of developing PTSD after indirect exposure to aversive elements of a traumatic event in the course of professional duties (e.g., first responders who collect body parts, professionals who are repeatedly exposed to child abuse situations). However, trauma exposure is implicated in nearly every diagnosis in the diagnostic manuals, and PTSD should not be considered the most common outcome (Briere & Scott, 2014, as cited in Brown & Courtois, 2019).…”

First responders (FRs) are at high risk of being exposed to traumatic events in their occupational roles. Limited evidence-based support has been offered to FRs who have experienced occupational trauma using digital interventions (DIs). OBJECTIVE: To gain evidence from FRs relating to the impact of exposure to occupational trauma and describe the development of and planned protocol for testing an evidence-based, co-created DI called Sentinel to help manage and prevent trauma among FRs. METHODS: In phase 1, we conducted 52 interviews with FRs from fire and emergency, police, and emergency healthcare to explore the needs, views and experiences on using DI to support mental health. During phase 2, we developed the DI (Sentinel) content in consultation with current evidence, policy, theory and FRs experience. In phase 3, we plan to conduct a series of codesign workshops and development sprints to test and refine the DI (Sentinel). In phase 4, we will conduct a mixed methods non-randomized study to determine the feasibility, acceptability, usability and safety of the DI (Sentinel). RESULTS: We expect data to be collected from up to 50 FRs for feasibility testing. We expect to conduct approximately 30 qualitative interviews with FRs who engaged in the Sentinel trial and 20 health and social care professionals who referred FRs to the study. CONCLUSIONS: This study will provide preliminary evidence on the feasibility, acceptability, safety, usability and implementation potential of the DI (Sentinel). The findings will inform the decision to proceed with a powered efficacy trial.
