Healthcare & Behavioral Health
When trauma exposure is part of care delivery, workforce stability becomes a clinical risk.
In healthcare and behavioral health, crisis is not occasional, it is structural. Staff carry grief, violence, high acuity needs, moral injury, and constant emotional intensity. Over time, trauma exposure accumulates in the body and brain. The result is not just burnout, it is operational instability that impacts care.
What leaders are seeing
Many sites absorb >$1M annually in preventable instability costs when turnover, absences, and disruption compound.
Why traditional supports aren't enough
Training, EAP, and wellness programs can help, but they do not create a mechanism to:
Detect trauma load early
Current systems leave this gap open.
Reduce nervous system overload during real shifts
Current systems leave this gap open.
Give leadership visibility before instability spreads
Current systems leave this gap open.
