Trauma-Informed Primary Care: Fostering Resilience in Our Patients and Ourselves (Recorded at Pri-Med Southwest)

Trauma-Informed Primary Care: Fostering Resilience in Our Patients and Ourselves (Recorded at Pri-Med Southwest) is organized by Pri-Med.

Topics:
Behavioral Health

Overview:
Many patients seen in primary care settings have experienced gender-based violence, such as intimate partner violence, sexual assault, and human trafficking. National guidelines recommend screening women of reproductive age for intimate partner violence, yet health professionals often find it challenging to identify and then address the healthcare needs of violence survivors. This case-based discussion will describe the prevalence and health consequences of gender-based violence. You will learn best practice strategies for providing trauma-informed care in your own clinical practice.

Learning Objectives:
• Describe diverse presentations of patients experiencing gender-based violence
• Recognize barriers for patient disclosure of gender-based violence
• Summarize national clinical guidelines and relevant laws when addressing gender-based violence in clinical practice
• Demonstrate the ability to incorporate effective, evidence-based and trauma-informed strategies into routine identification and intervention(s) for survivor of violence
