Trauma can be anything that overwhelms a person’s capacity to cope. People respond to trauma in different ways.
Trauma informed care recognizes the effects of trauma and values creating environments that are safe. Your experiences matter to us and we want our clients, their families and our staff to feel safe and supported.
We are committed to:
- Doing our best to make sure everyone feels safe—physically, emotionally, and culturally
- Teaching our staff about trauma and how to create a calm, caring space
- Giving our staff tools and support so they can take care of others and themselves
We encourage your feedback.
If you have ideas or feedback on how we can build and create a safe and supportive space, we would love to hear from you. Reach out to us at info@nshsc.nshealth.ca.
