What They Wrote About Trauma Will Sound Like Your First Year

Written by:
A nursing professor assigned her class one task. Take the free nurse-specific trauma assessment. Then write what you found. Three early career nurses, all less than two years into practice, wrote back with the same realization. What they were carrying was not weakness, and it was not burnout. It was trauma, and the system built it.
In this episode Dr. Lorre Laws walks through their reflections and the science underneath them. Why 96 percent of nurses carry at least one symptom of PTSD. Why researchers who screened nearly 8,000 studies for nurse trauma interventions found only six. Why 30 states still let licensing boards ask about a nurse's mental health, and why so many nurses stay silent rather than risk the license they spent years earning.
These three nurses got the science while they were still new enough to use it. Most of us did not. If no one ever gave you the words for what you carried, they were stolen from you, not missing in you.
