Evaluation of a trauma-informed care (TIC) training program across community health centers in Texas: a qualitative study
A trauma-informed environment in a healthcare setting can bolster patient-centered care as well as a culture of staff wellness. This qualitative evaluation revealed that after TIC training, Trainers had improved attitudes and behaviors to commit to organizational TIC transformation to prevent unintended consequences of trauma for both patients and staff. Trainers' experiences with and suggestions for enhancing the TIC training should be considered for training future cohorts as they continue to strive for TIC transformation in their health centers.
