Abstract
Recent studies have discovered strong relationships between adverse childhood experiences (ACE) and childhood neurobiological development, adult health, and mortality. Yet, researchers have also documented remarkable levels of resiliency in children who have experienced childhood maltreatment and trauma. This article discusses the findings from the original ACE study, reviews the stress response and neurobiological toll of abuse and neglect on childhood development, and discusses the key factors that foster resiliency in children. An algorithm is provided to aid nurses in the development of appropriate care plans and the promotion of resiliency in patients with adverse childhood experiences.
