Episode Synopsis

For this episode, we are looking at the provision of trauma-informed care to people who have experienced sexual assault. This includes, but is not limited to, helping survivors regain a feeling of control, effectively communicating with patients, and offering STI testing. Amanda Reames Pitelli, ANRP, M.S.N., the director of clinical services at Planned Parenthood of Metropolitan Washington, D.C., joins us to talk about simple, specific steps HIV clinicians can take to create a safe space for their patients and improve outcomes.   Our host for this episode, TheBodyPro contributing editor Juan Michael Porter II, uses his own personal experience as a person living with HIV who has been subjected to sexual assault and sub-optimal trauma care as a case study for how to engage with this difficult subject matter.   Read the full transcript (clicking the link helps support the podcast!): https://www.thebodypro.com/article/future-hiv-care-podcast-5-trauma-informed-care   Our podcast team: Executive producer Myles Helfand; audio producers/engineers Alex Portaluppi and Lucy Mueller; project manager Alina Mogollon-Volk; and podcast editors Maria Elena Perez and Juan Michael Porter II.
