Ep. 145: Providers Are Human: Understanding & Supporting Provider Trauma

On today's episode, we are talking about provider trauma. This is a topic that we are incredibly passionate about and I think this plays an intricate role in birth and perinatal trauma and our ability to prevent it. We are specifically talking about any health care worker in the labor and delivery, obstetric and NICU/ICU space - essentially anyone involved in one's care during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. This is such a personal topic, as I share how my team made space to process the trauma they experience with my AFE and Cal's birth.In this episode, you will hear:- understanding provider trauma- the impact of provider trauma on patient care- addressing provider trauma in healthcare systems- creating supportive environments for providersResources:For more birth trauma content and a community full of love and support, head to my Instagram at @thebirthtrauma_mama.Learn more about the support and services I offer through The Birth Trauma Mama Therapy & Support Services.Disclaimer - The views and opinions expressed by guests on The Birth Trauma Mama Podcast are their own and do not necessarily reflect the official stance, views, or positions of The Birth Trauma Mama Podcast.
