Trauma informed care is an approach to mental health service delivery and nursing practice. Trauma informed practice recognises that diverse emotional (and physical) problems, conditions and disorders are trauma-related. Clinicians who use this approach recognise the complexity of the impacts of trauma and work from the foundational principles of safety, trustworthiness, choice, collaboration and empowerment. How does this approach help guide and inform the provision of mental health care in Australia at a policy level and for the consumer? How will this approach influence your mental health nursing practice?
