83: Recognize and Stop Nurse Specific Trauma- Dr. Lorre Laws PhD, RN

  • Summary

  • “…the problem and what is driving Nurses from the profession in droves like never seen before— please don't talk to me about attrition, well, yes, that's a factor—the world is hemorrhaging Nurses. And that's a quote from Dr. Terrance Hill, medical sociologist, the world is hemorrhaging Nurses and the root cause for that, it's not about burnout.

    And please stop gaslighting Nurses about burnout resilience. Please just stop. The reason. The root cause, according to my research, five years, four disciplines, is avoidable, Nurse Specific Traumatization. And this would be this historical trauma, where we are unknowingly transmitting." ~ Dr. Lorre Laws PhD, RN

    Ah Ha Moments

    • All Nurses have, (or will have) experienced trauma
    • Enough blame on Nurses. Healthcare system, wake up! Instead of putting the blame on your employees, let’s address the systemic problems that are causes of avoidable traumas… understaffing, bullying, violence, not addressing high acuity, lack of resources and still demanding exceptional care and more…
    • Thinking that solving burnout will fix all Nursing problems is all wrong, what if what we’re experiencing is because of trauma exposure? That the actions and responses we see in ourselves, and our colleagues are because the traumas are being stored in our bodies, minds and spirits
    • We must learn about how trauma can and has affected us, and make this common language, and learn how to help ourselves so we can begin to heal and insulate our nervous systems from further injury
