The impact of trauma on a patient's health can be devastating. Patients may become susceptible to retraumatization when seeking healthcare. Providers must recognize the concept of Trauma-Informed Care (TIC) as an essential tool in caring for patients. The project's purpose is to improve provider knowledge of TIC through educational sessions.
