abstract="PURPOSE of Review: Exposure to trauma accelerates during the adolescence, and due to increased behavioral and psychiatric vulnerability during this developmental period, traumatic events during this time are more likely to cause a lasting impact. In this article, we use three case studies of hospitalized adolescents to illustrate the application of trauma-informed principles of care with this unique population. Recent Findings: Adolescents today are caught in the crosshairs of two syndemics--racism and other structural inequities and the COVID-19 pandemic. Increased hospitalizations and mental health diagnoses during the past two years signal toxic levels of stress affecting this group. Trauma-informed care promotes health, healing, and equity. Summary: This concept of the &quot;trauma-informed approach&quot; is still novel; through examples and practice, providers can learn to universally apply the trauma-informed care framework to every patient encounter to address the harmful effects of trauma and promote recovery and resilience. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
