Trauma-informed care (TIC) shows promise for improving staff confidence and perceived safety in forensic settings. However, evidence is limited, with no adult service user outcomes reported, necessitating further research.
Area of Science:
- Forensic Mental Health
- Organizational Psychology
- Evidence-Based Practice
Background:
- Trauma-informed care (TIC) is advocated in forensic and secure mental health settings.
- Implementation outcomes and effectiveness of TIC are not well-defined in these environments.
Conclusions:
- Evidence for TIC in forensic settings is sparse and methodologically limited.
- Preliminary findings suggest benefits for perceived safety when TIC is integrated into organizational culture.
- Rigorous studies with adult service user outcomes and sustained clinical measures are needed.
