TEDI TEAM For patients who have experienced adverse childhood events such as abuse or the loss of a parent, or who have spent time in foster care, being in a hospital setting can be overwhelming. To help combat such prior negative experiences, the TEDI Team was established at Shriners Children’s Portland in 2018. TEDI stands for: PATIENT-CENTERED CARE

The goal of the TEDI team is to ensure that children with prior developmental trauma receive the extra attention to safety, transparency, and compassion that they need to decrease stress while receiving care at Shriners Children’s Portland.
