State Of Wisconsin, City Of Milwaukee Urge Trauma-Informed Care [wpr.org]

A Wisconsin pediatrician is recommending closer attention be paid to what appears to be the slightest injuries on very small children. The issue is part of a statewide discussion on childhood trauma and its lasting effects.

Dr. Angela Rabbitt is an associate professor at the Medical College of Wisconsin. She spends one day a week at a Children's Hospital of Wisconsin clinic in Elkhorn that helps abused and neglected kids.

Rabbitt says more attention needs to be paid to what's known as sentinel injuries.
