AB Recognizing  and  addressing  trauma  offers  a  powerful  opportunity  to  improve  the  experience  and  outcomes  of  primary  care  for  both  patients  and  clinicians.  For  clinicians,  understanding  that  trauma  underlies  and  perpetuates  many  common  health  conditions  helps  clarify  why  certain  conditions  often  remain  refractory  to  standard  medical  treatment.  This  understanding,  in  turn,  can  lead  to  deeper  and  more  compassionate  connections  with  patients  and  more  effective  treatment  plans.  For  patients,  understanding  the  connection  between  the  experience  of  trauma  and  their  current  health  issues  can  lead  to  greater  self-acceptance,  engagement  in  care,  healthier  coping  mechanisms,  and  improved  health  outcomes.
