At Edan Support, we are dedicated to delivering compassionate, high-quality care to individuals of all ages, ensuring they lead lives of dignity and independence.
Understanding Trauma-Informed Care
Trauma-Informed Care (TIC) is an approach that acknowledges the profound impact of trauma on an individual’s neurological, biological, psychological, and social development. It emphasises creating environments that promote safety, trust, and empowerment.
Our Commitment to Trauma-Informed Care
We recognise that trauma can significantly influence a person’s well-being. Our team is trained to understand these effects, ensuring that every interaction fosters safety, trust, and healing. By adopting a trauma-informed approach, we aim to provide care that is sensitive to the unique experiences of each individual.
Trauma-Informed Care and Brain Injury
While Trauma-Informed Care is gaining recognition, its specific application to brain injury is still emerging. Currently, the CQC does not formally recognise trauma-informed care and brain injury as a regulated activity. However, we believe in the importance of integrating TIC principles into our services for individuals with brain injuries. By doing so, we can better address the complex needs of our clients, promoting recovery and enhancing quality of life.
Looking Ahead
We are committed to advocating for the recognition of trauma-informed care in the context of brain injuries. We understand that systemic changes take time, but we are dedicated to leading by example, providing care that aligns with the principles of trauma-informed practice. Our goal is to contribute to a future where such approaches are standard in care services, ensuring that all individuals receive the support they need to thrive.
At Edan Support, we place the utmost value on our care users and staff, treating each individual uniquely and providing tailored care services. We strive to improve our performance and learn from our experiences, embracing our position of social importance within the local community.
By integrating trauma-informed care into our services, we reaffirm our commitment to delivering compassionate, high-quality care that respects and uplifts every individual we serve.
