The purpose of the study is to assess healthcare interactions and violence intervention services provided to patients and their loved ones that are treated for firearm injuries. This will be done in a 30 to 45-minute interview where participants will be asked questions about their healthcare experience, services provided by the Turning the Tide Violence Intervention Program (TTVIP), what went well with their care and services, and what could be improved. This information will be used to better understand the experiences and needs of patients and families that experience a violent injury, what is done well by trauma centers and hospital violence intervention programs (HVIPs), and what could be improved in their experience and recovery.

The purpose of the study is to assess services, experiences, needs and outcomes for patients that experience violent injuries in the year after injury, and to assess differences among those that are served by the Turning the Tide Violence Intervention Program (TTVIP) compared to those who are not. This will be done through a series of four 25-35 minute surveys that will be administered over the course of a year. Participants will be asked questions about their physical and mental health, violence exposures and risk, healthcare experience, ongoing needs, services provided by the TTVIP and overall recovery. This information will be used to better understand the experiences of patients that experience a violent injury, how HVIPs impact their outcomes, and how healthcare teams and hospital violence intervention programs (HVIPs) can be improved within trauma centers.
