Trauma-Informed Care
Leah C. Tatebe, MD FACS
A patient presents to the emergency room after a fight where he sustained a visible arm injury. The patient is refusing to answer questions and telling hospital staff to get away from him. As a practitioner of trauma-informed care, what should be your immediate response?

Dismiss the patient's agitation as a reaction to the pain and proceed with the medical examination.

Continue with the standard line of questioning, emphasizing the importance of knowing the cause of the injury and telling him that he will be restrained if does not cooperate.

Take a step back, acknowledge the patient's concerns, provide reassurance, and adapt your approach to avoid exacerbating their distress while ensuring necessary medical care is provided.

Offer a side comment to a colleague that you can see why he got in a fight to begin with.
