Healthcare professionals want to do the best they can for survivors but are let down by systems that aren't trauma-informed. We call for buy-in across the health system so those on the frontline have the support they need to keep saving lives. Find out more at: pathfindertoolkit.org #HCADVDay

One way to be trauma-informed is knowing how to ask about abuse APPROPRIATELY. Are you asking the right questions? Are you asking them in the right way? Are you asking them at all? Our #Pathfinder partners @irisintervent can help. Find out more: pathfindertoolkit.org #HCADVDay

The entire healthcare system should be trauma-informed. Trauma-informed = knowing how to recognise & respond to people who have experienced trauma. Shocked this isn't standard practice? So are we. Find out about our trauma-informed training at avaproject.org.uk #HCADVDay

The current health system creates a trauma cycle for survivors because they are often not asked the right questions about abuse and can be sent from service to service having to re-explain & thus re-live their traumatic experiences. Find out more on pathfindertoolkit.org #HCADVDay
