Your Risk For Vicarious Trauma

For this Application Assignment you take the Professional Quality of Life Scale  (ProQOL 5) ProQOL_5_Self-Score.pdf  , a brief assessment instrument developed to promote self-awareness of vicarious trauma. It measures compassion satisfaction, which is the pleasure you derive from your profession, risks for burnout, and your exposure to extremely stressful events. Together, these three components help determine your risk for developing vicarious trauma and the impact of controlled empathy.

As you score the ProQOL 5, think about whether the results surprise you. What areas do you need to focus on to exercise strategies to prevent the development or further exacerbation of vicarious trauma?

My Scores:

Compassion Satisfaction Scale- 44

Burnout Scale- 22

Secondary Traumatic Stress Scale- 13
