Article Synopsis
- Military families experience unique challenges that can affect their well-being, necessitating a trauma-informed care (TIC) approach in military medicine, which currently lacks established curricula.
- A 50-minute virtual session was conducted for second-year medical students at the Uniformed Services University to enhance their understanding of TIC and its importance in treating military-connected individuals.
- The session resulted in significant improvements in students' knowledge and confidence about TIC, with mean satisfaction scores indicating that participants found the session relevant and helpful for their future practice.
