Nursing Grand Rounds: Laying the Foundation: Essential Concepts in the Provision of Trauma Responsive Care

Effective patient services require not only an understanding of the basics of trauma, but also its effects on the human mind, body, and soul. Trauma informed care requires an ability to recognize the effects of traumatic experiences and the prevalence of those effects in individuals seeking medical and mental health care. A thorough understanding of the constellation of symptoms and mental health presentations of traumatized clients, the neurobiology of trauma, and application of Judith Herman’s Tri-phasic trauma intervention model will be addressed. Participants will learn to support clients who have difficulty making gains due to inability to regulate emotionally or physiologically, and to apply proactive strategies attuned to the complex needs of traumatized clients.
