title: Traumatic stress: a nurse therapist role?
abstract: The study of people who experience post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is still in its infancy. Yet it is already clear that victims of more common traumatic events are as much at risk of suffering short- and long-term psychological consequences as the victims of major disasters. Nurse therapists and specialists clinics could have a key role in working with people experiencing PTSD and in educating others about the problems.
