Dissociative Disorders Awareness

Dissociative experiences can be difficult to describe and may be misunderstood by others. Build awareness of dissociative disorders and explore how sensitive communication, reliable relationships and consistent support can help staff respond with greater understanding in everyday care.

Consider the importance of listening to the person's account without making assumptions about their experience. Discussion connects awareness with familiar routines, individual plans and appropriate boundaries, helping teams recognise when changes or concerns should be shared with the relevant people and further support sought.
