Risk Assessment Training 2024

EAPO hosting Risk Assessment training again!
(December 3, 4, & 6,  2024)

Registration is OPEN

 

EAPO is pleased to host a 3 day virtual Risk Assessment Training Course: Harm to Older Persons Evaluation (HOPE). The course will be faciliated by Dr. Jennifer Storey, a Forensic Psychologist specializing in violence risk assessment and interpersonal violence. The risk assessment tool for older adult mistreatment  is based on empirical literature.

Dr. Storey, author of HOPE, will facilitate engaging and interactive training sessions to provide participants the skills and tools for applying risk assessments of older adults and their perpetrators, as well as empower  providers by building their capacity for response and intervention when supporting older adults at-risk or experiencing elder abuse. The comprehensive nature of the HOPE precludes its use by many frontline practitioners who are tasked with triaging a concern of OAM and implementing preliminary intervention while referring the case for more in-depth assessment

Real case scenarios are provided for participants to apply their knowldge in completing comprehensive assessments of risk for future older adult mistreatment (OAM) and develop a  management plan to reduce the likelihood of continued OAM.

Dr. Storey will provide participants a
“Certificate of Completion”
to verify their use of the HOPE tool in practice.
