  This talk will explore the first-hand experiences of adult children who were harmed by a parent in childhood who are caring for that parent through serious illness or the end of life. Themes of obligation, ambivalence, re-traumatization, and resilience will be explored. Trauma-informed techniques that hospice and palliative care professionals can employ to work with families with a history of harm will be discussed.

  
  

  Learning Objectives:

  1. Recognize the motivations for an adult child survivor to participate in caregiving for a parent who was harmful.

  2. Describe the experience of adult child survivors caring for a parent who was harmful, including re-traumatization activators and opportunities for post-traumatic growth.

  3. Summarize the trauma informed approaches healthcare professionals can use in their work when there is a history of harm in the family.
