What is trauma-informed care? Often using spe- cific examples juxtaposed with cogent summarizes of the research literature, Trauma-Informed Healthcare Approaches effectively communicates the broad prin- ciples and necessary components of the TIC approach at both an individual and systems level. I find Leigh Kimberg’s 4 Cs (Calm, Contain, Care and Cope) particular useful as a mnemonic for how how to apply trauma-informed principles to clinical care.

So pleased that KevinMD published this patient narrative. I was encouraged to share it here as well! https://www.kevinmd.com/blog/2...romotes-healing.html By MEGAN R. GERBER, MD | CONDITIONS | JULY 26, 2019 As physicians, we face the formidable task of working with patients who appear angry, never content with care or “made better” by anything we do. They may be known as “difficult,” unpleasant, or demanding. These patients are the most challenging and often the least rewarding to care for.

Our recently published book, Trauma-informed Healthcare Approaches was written to share basic principles of trauma-informed care and ACEs science with general medical practitioners and administrators. As the recent #METOO movement has demonstrated, interpersonal trauma is widespread. A growing literature has demonstrated the impact of traumatic experiences on mental, physical health and wellbeing. Trauma survivors commonly access healthcare but their histories and needs are commonly...

excellent blog post. Personal, specific stories really elucidate how the TIC perspective can help us engage more effectively and fully with our patients. Brigid > On Jul 30, 2019, at 1:24 PM, ACEsConnection < communitymanager@acesconnection.com > wrote: >

I've been asked to post these on the main site and here in our group as well - sorry if it appears I am being duplicative!

Megan, What a powerful story. Thank you for sharing it. Eve

This is a very interesting presentation, and I look forward to reading Dr. Strait's article in The Permanente Journal. The subject has great relevance for the military because there is highly suggestive evidence that ACE Scores and their generally not-understood sequelae may be more common in a volunteer military that in a draft military. Attached as Item 3 is an article describing how routine ACE screening was carried out on a very large scale in one Kaiser Department, and its effects and...

By Clyde W. Yancy, MD, MSc 1 , JAMA. Published June 30, 2020. doi:10.1001/jama.2020.12532 E choes of “medicine as the noble profession” continue to resonate, now 35 years since my legendary Chair of Medicine imbued me with this guiding ethos. Nobility in medicine is not obsolete; the selflessness, courage, self-sacrifice, and altruism on gallant display in the response to COVID-19 reassures that at its core, this ethic of egalitarian service remains intact and deeply established in the DNA...

Trauma-Informed Medical Education (TIME): Advancing Curricular Content and Educational Context Given that key perspectives and practices are cemented during medical education, the authors advocate teaching trauma-informed care in UME, including curricular content, clinical skills, and self-care techniques.

An interdisciplinary team of clinicians from Brigham and Women’s Hospital had a bold idea in 2017. They would completely change the way things worked in their hospital’s emergency department so that the care provided to their patients was infused with a trauma-informed approach. That means recognizing how widespread trauma is and using a myriad of techniques to mitigate its harmful effects among patients, providers and staff. The realization of just how widespread trauma is came to light in...

By Institute for Global Health Sciences, UCSF, February 10, 2021 In 2020, the unequal impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, coupled with the state-sanctioned murders of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor, laid bare the persistent disparities in access to quality health care, education, and opportunity facing Black, Latinx, Indigenous and other people of color. IGHS has undertaken a number of new projects to reduce the inequities in our own house and backyard and across the world. Today, we are...

This is the third of three stunning illustrations showing how PACEs (positive and adverse childhood experiences) affected the family of Cendie Stanford, graphic artist and founder of the nonprofit ACEs Matter. This one looks at her positive childhood experiences. The day before her 16th birthday, Cendie Stanford’s older brother was shot and killed by a young man who, just two years earlier, had been her boyfriend. “I was heartbroken that two people I loved were out of my life forever,” says...
