Lecture ABSTRACT:
Obstetric interventions have the potential to cause unintended and invisible physical, psychological, and emotional harm to patients. Understanding and implementing a trauma-informed model of care can reduce negative impacts on the birthing patient, their family, and members of the care team. This presentation will help participants identify specific ways to better care for themselves and their patients in the birth room to decrease the risk of trauma and improve health outcomes.
