While nearly 90% of human trafficking survivors report having contact with healthcare providers while being trafficked, physicians and healthcare staff. have a low index of suspicion and low confidence in identifying trafficking victims. To effectively intervene on behalf of this group of patients, providers must possess a functional understanding of clinical presentations, risk factors, screening tools, and trauma-informed care. This activity lays out these essentials of knowledge and competencies for systems-based practice. This activity is part of a Spotlight series which features health practitioners from a wide array of fields sharing their experience and expertise to provide care to patients at Baylor College of Medicine. The purpose of this series is to raise awareness on important health conditions commonly found within the patient population. Each session will aim to advance clinical knowledge, enhance the quality of patient care, and improve treatment outcomes.
