Area of Science:

  • Clinical Ethics
  • Bioethics
  • Trauma-Informed Care

Background:

  • Current clinical ethics consultation frameworks may not adequately address the impact of trauma on patients and practitioners.
  • Trauma-Informed Care (TIC) principles are increasingly integrated into various clinical settings.
  • Existing ethics consultation models, including the ASBH framework and feminist approaches, can be expanded to incorporate trauma-informed perspectives.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose and define a novel framework for Trauma Informed Ethics Consultation (TIEC).
  • To integrate trauma-informed care principles into the practice of clinical ethics consultation.
  • To ensure ethics consultations are systematically sensitive to culture, power dynamics, and marginalization.

Main Methods:

  • Development of the TIEC framework, building upon existing ethics consultation models and trauma-informed care literature.
  • Application of the TIEC framework using a case example from a neonatal intensive care unit.
  • Analysis of how TIEC addresses the needs of all stakeholders, including patients, surrogates, and healthcare practitioners.

Main Results:

  • The proposed TIEC framework provides a structured approach to integrating trauma awareness into ethics consultations.
  • The neonatal intensive care unit case example illustrates the practical application and benefits of TIEC.
  • TIEC enhances the ability of ethics consultants to create morally habitable spaces for all involved parties.

Conclusions:

  • Trauma Informed Ethics Consultation (TIEC) is a necessary advancement for clinical ethics practice.
  • TIEC aligns clinical ethics with the broader adoption of trauma-informed care across healthcare.
  • Ethics consultants play a crucial role in creating supportive and responsive ethical environments through TIEC.
