Abstract
Nurses commonly experience psychological trauma with high risk for a host of mental health concerns such as suicide, depression, anxiety, and substance use disorders, as well as high rates of burnout and moral injury. Despite rigorous academic preparation, baccalaureate nursing education curricula lack content on the widespread effects of trauma. Using a trauma informed care (TIC) model, an innovative course called Trauma Informed Care for Nursing Action (TIC4NA) was created. This course allows students to safely explore the profession of nursing to transform their learning about trauma related to patient care, the nursing community, and society. TIC curriculum delivery offers supportive strategies to mitigate negative outcomes during nursing school. This content could have positive effects on nurse and nursing student retention as well as mitigating a barrage of negative outcomes for individual nurses and the nursing profession.
