Black pediatric patients admitted for traumatic injuries were more likely to be suspected of child abuse and had longer hospital stays compared to children and adolescents of other racial and ethnic backgrounds. @NorahLiang @StanfordPedSurg ja.ma/4gdHeQC

1/3: I am so thankful for the health professionals who strive to be trauma-informed in care they deliver to patients every day. I wish that the education and training of healthcare professionals consistently included topics that encompass violence, abuse, trauma-responsive and
trauma-informed care. Unfortunately, all healthcare professionals don’t have an opportunity to learn about these very prevalent issues that face patients across the lifespan. Fortunately, @violenceabuse is committed to the education and training of
3/3 health professionals on the prevention, identification and interventions for individuals who have experienced violence and abuse. Won’t you help us fulfill our mission this Giving Tuesday. avahealth.org/join-us/donate… #AVA #ACES #traumainformedcare
