Negative effects of adverse childhood experiences and absence of positive childhood experiences on healthcare employees: survey findings built on 10 years of trauma-informed development

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Teammate history of adversity was widespread and having fewer PCEs was associated with poorer adult workplace outcomes. These findings point to the value of a trauma-informed approach in healthcare, which offers healthcare organizations a framework for recognizing how trauma experiences affect wellbeing and intersect with the healthcare system, as well as how to create environments that are supportive of patients, staff, and providers.
