Statement of Need and Purpose
Primary care physicians face multiple competing demands during the ambulatory encounter—a situation magnified in practices in which the population may be at high risk for trauma and who concurrently experience other sources of adversity such as socioeconomic vulnerability. Primary care physicians often fail to uncover PTSD diagnoses or develop treatment plans to address posttraumatic stress symptoms for their patients. Education on the association between trauma symptomatology, adverse childhood experiences, and social determinants of health in vulnerable primary care populations is warranted to inform the clinical care of patients with trauma sequelae.
