In this discussion, you will dig a little deeper and find that the issue of PTSD/ACEs is not interpreted similarly by experts dealing with trauma and children. Some even suggest the labeling of children with PTSD might create a stigma.
Some experts believe children face severe trauma in hospital settings while being treated, some in foster care settings, and others in dangerous neighborhoods and schools.
Roleplay Scenario
As a public health detective/epidemiologist, you will look at the assigned readings and use research to help you create a risk profile that describes children at risk for exposure to severe trauma. Please include references for any outside sources you use to support your post and refer to the guidelines in the Faculty Expectations message as you prepare your initial posts and responses.
Risk Profile
Risk profiles contain the following elements:
Real-life examples.
Choices available for those at risk.
How accessible is help or assistance.
Gather as much evidence as you can while creating your risk profile of PTSD/ACEs in children.
Provide an estimate of how many children fit this profile and what these children look like demographically (age, gender, race, culture, socioeconomic status, et cetera).
Include the types of potential biases and/or ethical dynamics that children and family members are likely to encounter when seeking help for PTSD/ACEs.
Indicate where most of the affected population lives: urban, suburban, xurban, small town, or rural.
