Evidence-aware education for healthcare professionals.

Trauma, Pain & the Nervous System

What Nurses Aren’t Taught — and Why It Matters for Patient Outcomes

This on-demand course offers evidence-aware education for nurses navigating pain, trauma responses, and nervous system dysregulation in clinical settings.

The course focuses on understanding — not treatment or technique — and provides language, context, and ethical framing for situations nurses are already encountering in practice.

Topics include:

  • Pain without tissue damage and central sensitization
  • Trauma responses and behavioral misinterpretation in care settings
  • Nervous system coping, dependence, and substance use
  • Why patients are asking about psychedelics — and how to respond ethically
  • Scope, referral, and professional boundary protection

This course is designed to support clarity, ethical decision-making, and professional responsibility.

Scope note: This course is educational in nature and does not provide clinical training, certification, or therapeutic instruction. It is intended to support professional understanding and ethical decision-making within existing scopes of practice.
