| Summary: | This title offers practical suggestions for how to grow a trauma informed approach and culture within acute mental health services. It starts by building a compassionate understanding of the challenges faced by people receiving, and delivering, care in inpatient settings. It considers the (understandable) ways in which individuals and services have adapted to cope, and what this means for patient care and staff wellbeing. It then offers suggestions relevant to individual clinicians, teams and organizations, aiming to help all readers feel more hopeful, empowered, and equipped. The clinical focus is crisis and inpatient care for people with 'complex emotional needs', where there is a need to build (multidimensional) safety for all involved - patients, but also those caring for them. Some systemic challenges are recognized and discussed, including fear of blame, task focus, fast pace, and increasing clinical acuity. |
