Yes, I totally agree. Maybe the answer is too simple. Perhaps because we have forgotten where it all starts ….at the bottom of the pyramid; not halfway up. We have to address basic needs before we can move on. Basic needs are essential. Skipping over basic needs causes stress which impacts the brain....then you've got a problem. Lack of an adequate supply of diapers infancy and toddlerhood causes distress for an infant and his mother. Here, you have already negatively impacted the back and...

Have you joined the website NPPC ACEs? They have links to most of the relevant research there. I think your question shows a bit of a difference in thinking from those who are using ACEs screening.

It is possible that a person with an ACE of 6 has a good relationship with a caregiver, feels safe most of the time, has good school and church support, and no current medical or mental health issues. They don't currently...

We are interested in conducting research in a Peds ER involving asking the 10 ACE questions to patients. Has anyone done this?

I would greatly value hearing the feedback of the ACEs community on this endeavor, and welcome your ideas for...

I'm a pediatric neurologist at University of Alabama at Birmingham and Children's of Alabama. ACEs in the Peds ED: I've discussed ACE screening with some of my Peds ED colleagues (and there's interest) but that's as far as we've gotten.... ACE screening elsewhere: Is anyone doing ACEs in sub-specialty pediatrics? I am looking for help on "best practices" in this setting. Over the past few months I have been informally asking an unscientific sample of my parents in Peds Neurology clinic to...

I’m kind of bad here because I didn’t read your entire reply but this area of somatic complaints and concerns over behavioral problems like ADHD - is really where I started asking the ACE questions mixed in with a bunch of other psychosocial questions - and the ACEs were always very high. I’ve been doing this since at least 2004. Rahil Briggs is awesome in this area as is NBHarris and they have a webinar coming up in a few days on integrating this into care. For Neurology - chronic...
