THE EMOTIONAL REGULATION NETWORK
A professional reflective learning community for healthcare and support staff.
The network provides a space to think about emotional regulation, distress, escalation, and staff responses within care settings.
It is not a therapy service, clinical supervision, or advice forum. It is a professional discussion and learning community, for people to share practice in a way that benefits the individuals who we support.
