Trauma informed care is often underutilized by healthcare teams leading to an increased risk of retraumatizing patients. Ineffective response to trauma behaviors often contributes to ineffective symptom management, threatened team dynamics, and a disproportionate use of resources.
The program provides a realistic implementation plan for individuals, teams, and organizations using a universal precautions strategy to improve patient outcomes.

We’re proud to be at the forefront of continuing education, offering joint accreditation for interprofessional education and a state-of-the-art learning management system. Joint accreditation is the leading model for interprofessional collaboration aimed at improving health care through team based continuing education. This accreditation allows Samaritan to efficiently offer continued education credits from multiple disciplines, including physicians, nurses, pharmacists and social workers.
Our focus extends beyond traditional education to include community outreach, research initiatives, and innovative programs. We strive to address the complex challenges in healthcare, including social determinants of health and caregiver support. At the Boccolini Institute, we’re not just teaching healthcare – we’re shaping the future of compassionate, team-based care delivery that makes a real difference in patients’ lives.
