New trauma informed care E learning programme now available

October 10, 2023

NHS England’s elearning for healthcare and mental health team have worked together to develop a new elearning programme about trauma informed care.

The programme, which is aimed at frontline health and care professionals, emergency services colleagues, violence reduction units and education staff, consists of five modules:

  • Human development and responses to threat
  • What do we mean by trauma?
  • Basic awareness, concepts and challenges
  • Public health and prevention, personal capacity
  • Making trauma informed approaches part of healthcare

On completion of the programme learners will have a greater understanding of trauma and its impact on the lives of everyone who encounters services, including those who work within it. It will help learners to recognise and sensitively respond to people who have experienced trauma.
