The individuals' lifetime exposure to traumatic events accounts between 70% to 80.7%. Consequently, Trauma-Informed Care (TIC) is promulgated in human service delivery to resist re-traumatisation and foster empowerment among trauma survivors. Social work professionals often experience vicarious and secondary trauma due to prolonged empathetic exposure to client's trauma narratives.

Secondly, the General Pedagogy domain addresses trauma and its impact through education and training with implications for self-care skill acquisition for service providers during field works. Thirdly, the Specific Practices domain targets redressal of highly challenging experiences and ethical issues encountered during social work practice by embodying self-care. Finally, the Ongoing Supervision domain emphasises on the essence of continued support and collaboration of individuals and organisations to foster learning and competency among the budding social work professionals whilst giving due consideration to Self-Care.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>The Self-Care Based TISW framework (S-GPS) lays foundation for embodying 'Self-Care is Social-Care' in education and training of budding social work professionals, wherein self-care acts as trauma (secondary and vicarious) buffer while efficiently engaging in empowerment of trauma survivors.</p>","PeriodicalId":73742,"journal":{"name":"Journal of evidence-based social work (2019)","volume":" ","pages":"695-709"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144060560","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
