In addition to these themes, participants of the community con‐<br>sultation highlighted the need for trauma‐ and client/patient‐cen‐<br>tred care. The importance of respect for the lived experience and<br>cultural backgrounds of different patients has also been highlighted<br>in research that considers strengths‐based approaches, including<br>patient‐centred (Cloninger et al., 2014; Henwood, Shinn, Tsemberis,<br>& Padgett, 2013) and trauma‐informed (Hopper, Bassuk, & Olivet,<br>2010) care. Trauma‐informed care is a framework that orients the<br>delivery of care in various settings to persons who have been trau‐<br>matised, including persons experiencing homelessness. Not only is<br>the experience of being homeless traumatising but also the path‐<br>way to homelessness is often fraught with trauma (e.g., childhood<br>abuse, discrimination, historical racism). With the goal of reducing<br>symptoms of trauma while facilitating recovery, the use of a trauma‐<br>informed care delivery focuses on individuals’ strengths (Hopper et<br>al., 2010).
