Trauma-informed Care: A Universal Precaution for Healthcare

School of Heath Sciences Fun-Size Scholarship Virtual Colloquium

Join the Zoom

The department chairs of the School of Health Sciences and Dean Brooke Hallowell invite you to our biannual Fun-Size Scholarship Interactive Colloquium, featuring Amanda M. Rodriguez, OTD, OTR, CTP, assistant professor and certified trauma professional in the Springfield College Occupational Therapy Program.

Rodriguez will provide a brief overview of the value of trauma-informed care practice in health care settings, engage us in conversation regarding how we prepare our students to practice in trauma-informed ways, and consider how we promote trauma-informed care practices in the classroom for future practitioners. She will discuss the connection between trauma-informed practice and impostor phenomenon, and research related to inclusive spaces for students.

The purpose of the event is to share information about scholarly work in progress and discuss possible directions. Join us for this engaging enjoyable, and fun-sized bite of faculty scholarship.
