You can decrease the frequency of any behavior through punishment, but why not give some thought to reciprocal inhibition? Reciprocal inhibition is the process of defining the opposite of the undesirable behavior and reinforcing the positive instead. Reciprocal inhibition can be useful for leaders in helping change behaviors aiming for high reliability. For example, instead of punishing errors, reward quality.
Considering your organization, or a health care organization you are familiar with, write a 3- to 4-page paper that:

this is response paper about the six domains of trauma informed care. The paper is about a workplace experience and the readings. Please read the following articles before starting the paper. It should be 3-4 pages long. PLEASE DO IT IN APA FORMAT. I used to work as a job coach at a day-program with people who have disabilities. I also volunteered at the regional center which funds the day program of the people who have disabilities. I’m going to write a little next to each so you can get an idea of it and you can also google the position to get a better idea. Below I provided the reading/sources, the prompt and the rubric. If you need any additional information please do not hesitate to ask. I am providing examples of me as a job coach at the day program and social worker at the regional center. You can also elaborate on what can be added. After reading the prompt it will be more clear. I’ve provided everything below. Thank you.
Safety – for safety we had monthly meetings to discuss how to keep clients safe during the day program. We also educated the clients about their own safety if any emergency happens. We were taught how to drive safe, to keep always an eye on the clients, to not drive fast, to stay close to them and so on. As social workers we make sure that the clients are safe in their homes and in the environment they live in. Our safety is important as well and we were given trainings on it.
Trustworthiness and Transparency – As job coach and social worker I tried to build trust in clients so they can feel safe and heard. Also confidentiality is important in terms of trust.
Peer Support Collaboration and Mutuality – As job coaches we support each other and share with each other experiences and advices. All job coaches are treated equal.
Empowerment, Voice and Choice – We empower clients to feel stronger and gain more self esteem. As social worker and job coach we teach them about their rights and give them voice to express what they want. We also offer them the option to have their own decisions and choices regarding their lives. We support them but we keep the final decisions to them.
Cultural, Historical, and Gender Issues – As social workers we get some trainings about culture, history and gender but not as job coaches. We could elaborate more in this area.
For this first response paper, review all the readings, lectures and videos for module 1 and consider your own experiences and abilities related to work with trauma in multicultural contexts.
