Summary

“Wherever you're working, whatever setting you're working in, whatever profession you are, if you're working with humans, you should be trauma-informed.”

Rachel Archambault, MA, CCC-SLP dropped ALL the mics within the first three minutes of our discussion in today’s episode of the Swallow Your Pride Podcast!

Trauma-informed care, empathy, and just the human touch are all crucial in our profession, but there’s an obvious tension between meeting productivity standards and providing this level of care. It’s palpable. Does our current productivity model harm the quality of care we can provide?

What does trauma-informed care look like, and what can we actually do to make it work without stressing over time-based codes and RVUs?

Tune in to this week’s discussion and see what Rachel has to say about it and join her call to action!
