## Resource

The 2am shift: therapeutic parenting when you're exhausted, understaffed and on your own   It's 2am. A young person is in crisis. You've been on shift for nine hours. And someone in your training told you to stay regulated.   This episode gets honest about what therapeutic parenting really looks like at the sharp end of a night shift - why night time is uniquely triggering for looked after children, what the window of tolerance means when you're running on empty, and what organisations consistently get wrong about supporting the people doing this work.   Plus, three things any residential worker can do tonight.   Identity, culture & belonging: who am I when my story keeps changing? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
