Description:
Exposure to abuse, neglect, discrimination, violence, and other adverse experiences can greatly impact a person’s health for the long term and the way they interact with the healthcare system especially when it comes to family planning services. Because of the potentially long-lasting negative impact of trauma on physical and mental health, it’s important for providers to understand and incorporate trauma-informed approaches to care into their practice.
Trauma-informed care acknowledges the need to understand a client’s life experiences to deliver effective care and has the potential to improve patient engagement, treatment adherence, and health outcomes. This webinar will go over strategies for integrating trauma-informed practices into reproductive health services.
Learning Objectives:
Define various types of traumas frequently experienced by people accessing reproductive health services
Identify trauma-informed practices that can be used in clinical settings
Describe the role of self-care and team-based care in providing trauma-informed services
Speaker:
Dominika Seidman, MD, MAS OBGYN and associate professor at San Francisco General Hospital Co-founded Team Lily, a trauma-informed, multidisciplinary care team providing wrap-around services to pregnant people Provides reproductive health services at the San Francisco County Jail
According to the National Survey of Family Growth, approximately 12% of “women of childbearing age” have a disability, and yet our educational and training programs devote little to no time in preparing us to provide accessible, appropriate, quality services to these populations. This webinar will define the population, identify the sexual and reproductive health needs, barriers to health care and health care disparities for people with disabilities, and present best practices for providing accessible, equitable sexual and reproductive health care for people with disabilities. This webinar will also discuss actionable items providers can immediately implement in their practices to make them disability accessible.
Learning Objectives:
Develop an inclusive definition of the populations that comprise people with disabilities
Identify sexual and reproductive health needs, barriers to health care and healthcare disparities for people with disabilities
Outline best practices for providing sexual and reproductive health care for people with disabilities
Identify concrete actions providers can take to improve access to and quality of sexual and reproductive health care for people with disabilities
Become knowledgeable on language, culture, and medical equipment suggestions
Speakers:
Erica Monasterio, MN, FNP-BC-Retired Clinical Professor Emerita at University of California, San Francisco 35 years of clinical experience in primary care for youth and families at UCSF and the San Francisco Department of Public Health Works in collaborations with organizations at the local, state, and national level providing training and technical assistance
