Description: Trauma affects many people and in a variety of different ways.  Why do some people seem to be able to cope with seemingly unbearable events, while others define themselves by a single moment?  This presentation will look at the ways in which trauma is defined, explore the physiological, psychological and spiritual aspects of trauma, and address treatment modalities, both pharmacologic and interpersonal by which the individual with trauma can be assisted in seeking healing and wholeness.  Nursing interventions appropriate for the person experiencing the sequelae of a traumatic event will also be reviewed.
