當悲傷離軌：悲傷的評估與臨床介入研討會 日期：2023年12月6 日（星期三） 時間：14:30 – 17:00（14：15開始接待） 地點：香港大學百周年校園賽馬會教學樓十一樓 社會科學學院會議廳 語言：廣東話 (主題演講①會以英語進行) 對象：社會工作者、輔導員、醫護專業、臨床心理學家或相關專業人士等 形式：研討會以實體形式進行 (名額有限，額滿即止) 報名：https://hku.au1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_b32ZVDw5XPrSbdA 查詢：jc_becare@hku.hk 研討會簡介 悲傷是喪親後正常和自然的反應，大多數喪親者都能夠透過自己的資源和應對方式，順利適應喪親後的生活軌跡。然而，有一小部份的喪親者卻因為在適應過程中遇有特別障礙，令他們的日常生活功能被極端的悲傷反應嚴重影響。 世界衛生組織的《國際疾病分類》第11次修訂版（ICD-11）和美國精神醫學會的《精神疾病診斷與統計手冊》第5版文本修訂版（DSM-5-TR）已將延長哀傷障礙（Prolonged Grief Disorder, PGD）視為一種精神健康疾病。要有效支援喪親者，專業同工需要對有關的評估工作以及臨床介入有清晰的掌握和認識。 本研討會邀請了從事善別研究及臨床工作的學者和專家，分享有關喪親後風險與影響評估的最新發展，以及介紹治療延長哀傷障礙的介入模式。 研討會流程 請 按此 了解詳情 有關計劃 「賽馬會善別關懷同盟」(JCBeCARE) 是一項由香港大學社會工作及社會行政學系主辦，並獲香港賽馬會慈善信託基金捐助的計劃。本計劃旨在連接本港各社會服務機構、專業同工和關心喪親議題的人士，讓喪親者從社區上得到適切的關懷，重新加強他們所需要的社交支援；另外，透過彙集實踐智慧和實證研究結果，為善別支援提供最佳的實踐指南和模式，全面提昇前線專業人員對善別工作的認識和信心。 捐助機構：香港賽馬會慈善信託基金
