Reflection -  Adverse Childhood Experiences

Final Reflection - Option 1:  Adverse Childhood Experiences

After completing the course, please craft a well-written self-reflection that addresses the following components: 

1. Has this class altered your perspective of how childhood experiences can affect people throughout life? If so, how?  If not, why not?
2. How has this class impacted your feelings about becoming a nurse practitioner and caring for patients with a past history of childhood trauma?
3. Consider how you can implement trauma-informed care strategies into your clinical practice.  What does this look like to you, and what possible barriers do you see to implementing trauma-informed care?
