Why Trauma-Informed Care is Essential Post Content: 🌞 Good morning, LinkedIn family! I hope today is full of opportunities for growth and understanding. Trauma doesn’t just affect individuals—it affects entire communities. That’s why trauma-informed care is essential in all settings, from workplaces to healthcare. 🧠 What is Trauma-Informed Care? Trauma-informed care means recognizing the widespread impact of trauma and ensuring that environments are supportive, safe, and understanding of how trauma affects behavior and needs. Why It Matters: • In healthcare, it leads to better patient outcomes. • In the workplace, it fosters a more supportive and productive environment. • In communities, it builds trust and resilience. Call-to-Action: Have you worked in a trauma-informed environment? How did it impact your experience? Let’s share insights and ideas in the comments below. #TraumaInformed #WorkplaceWellness #MentalHealthMatters #Healthcare

A trauma-informed approach to care acknowledges that health care organizations and care teams need to have a complete picture of a patient’s life situation — past and present — in order to provide effective health care services with a healing orientation. Adopting trauma-informed practices can potentially improve patient engagement, treatment adherence, and health outcomes, as well as provider and staff wellness. In this episode I highlight the meaning, benefits and core principles of trauma informed care on the mat and beyond. Please let me know your questions and feedback in the comments!

The prolonged and arduous journey that chronic Lyme patients face can take a heavy emotional toll on healthcare practitioners too. Witnessing immense suffering day after day while pushing to find answers is mentally and emotionally draining. It's easy for burnout to set in if you don't have the right support. This is where the irreplaceable value of a caring mentorship community comes in. More than just sharing clinical knowledge, mentors provide strategies to build emotional resilience. They offer a listening ear and wise counsel on navigating patient care with sustained compassion and empathy without running yourself into the ground. Through their guidance, you learn to protect your own well-being. Battling chronic Lyme can be a lonely road for both patients and doctors. However, having a caring mentor community provides the emotional lifeline everyone needs to persevere. Can you relate to needing this kind of emotional support system? Let's start that conversation in the comments. #ChronicLymeDiseaseAwareness #HealthcareBurnout #EmotionalResilience

I love this concept of asking the body! As a practitioner, having a plan in mind for a session may not serve my client as well as it could - unless I ask the body. My priority in a session, and even my client's priority in a session, may not be the body's (or their higher self's) priority. We have layers of health, we have layers of trauma. It's not up to me to decide what the first layer is to work with and release. Here's a short blog I wrote recently. https://lnkd.in/gFF6SAQs
