Title of paper: Unpacking complexity: GP perspectives on addressing the contribution of trauma to women’s ill health

Available at: https://doi.org/10.3399/BJGP.2024.0024

Significant challenges and uncertainties reside in how best to manage the link between mind and body in communication with patients and in healthcare pathways. Lack of supportive resources to deliver holistic, trauma informed care risks practitioners (inadvertently) avoiding discussion of the contribution of distress in the illness presentation. A trauma informed systems level approach would support integration of psychological support within multiple care pathways and support wellbeing of practitioners providing care.
