Improving Trauma Informed Practices in Pelvic Health Care (HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS)

Would you like to contribute to the development of trauma informed guidelines for pelvic health care?

Researchers at the University of Calgary (led by Dr. Lauren Walker, RPsych), have been developing trauma informed care guidelines for pelvic health care with a group of multi-disciplinary health care professionals and patients who have experienced trauma histories and accessed pelvic health care. The proposed guidelines have been contributed to by a multi-disciplinary team of 20 providers representing gynecology, urology, oncology, family medicine, sexual health, pelvic floor physio and midwifery. The team is currently seeking feedback from health care providers from these backgrounds about the proposed guidelines including practices and potential barriers and facilitators to implementation of these practices. The survey should take about 15-20 minutes and is best completed on a computer. The survey is approved by the Conjoint Health Research Ethics Board. Feedback to date has suggested the participation in the survey presents a valuable learning opportunity about trauma informed care as it relates to pelvic health. Thank you for considering participating.
