156. Trauma-Informed Primary Care: Changing Culture
https://swiy.co/WhatAreYourThoughts
In this thought-provoking episode of Pediatric Meltdown, host Dr. Gaggino welcomes special guest Dr. Polly Y. Gipson Allen as they do a deep dive into the world of trauma-informed care and its impact on primary care settings. Reflecting on personal experiences and societal awakenings brought about by the pandemic, they shed light on the psychological, physical, and spiritual effects of racial trauma and discrimination. From trauma-informed care to enhancing organizational capacity, the duo explores the various strategies and policies that can be implemented to create a culture of soul and self-care not only in clinical facilities, but also in schools as well. Join them as they share insights on building resilience, integrating mental health support, and the role of integrated care models in providing holistic patient care. It is time to prioritize the mental wellbeing of our patients and students and ensure that they have access to the resources and support they need. Let us be the voice that advocates for school-based mental health services and screenings, because every child deserves a caring and nurturing environment where they can thrive and grow. Together, we can transform our primary care settings into spaces that heal not just the body, but also the soul.
