Responding to Domestic Violence with a Trauma-Informed Lens for GPs and Primary Care Providers

This training is for General Practitioners and Primary Healthcare Practitioners who are working in a direct medical context within a general practice, community health setting or hospital and who work in short form consultations (15mins). This training is to provide trauma-informed awareness and support for general practitioners and primary care providers to recognise complex trauma and its possible health presentations.

Learning Outcomes:

1. developing an understanding of the types, prevalence, adaptations to and impacts of complex trauma (including domestic and family violence)
2. identifying possible adult health presentations of complex trauma
3. recognising symptoms and signs with a trauma-informed lens
4. determining strategies for working with clients who have experienced complex trauma in short-form consultations, to enhance safety and minimise re-traumatisation.
