Clone of Journey Into Geriatrics Scholarship

Trauma can affect how individuals experience healthcare, build trust with providers, and engage in their own care. Nurses have an important role in creating safe, respectful, and supportive environments for every patient. Understanding trauma-informed care helps future nurses recognize the impact of trauma, promote patient dignity, and provide compassionate care while maintaining their own well-being.
