Sanctuary Trauma: Creating a Culture of Care

PTSD | Moral Injury | Burnout | Psychiatric Nursing

Sanctuary trauma in psychiatric nursing is a serious issue linked to moral injury, burnout, PTSD, and workplace violence. Healthcare environments, meant to be healing spaces, can instead cause psychological distress for employees. Organizational support and strong leadership are crucial, but their relationship to sanctuary trauma is not well understood. The Sanctuary Model promotes psychological safety, emotional intelligence, and shared governance. The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the need for change. Our research aims to understand sanctuary trauma in psychiatric nursing and explore staff perceptions of organizational support to create trauma-informed workplaces.
