Activity Description

Family and domestic violence is a common problem in the United States, affecting an estimated 10 million people every year; as many as one in four women and one in nine men are victims of domestic violence. Virtually all healthcare professionals will at some point evaluate or treat a patient who is a victim of domestic or family violence. Domestic and family violence includes economic, physical, sexual, emotional, and psychological abuse of children, adults, or elders. Domestic violence causes worsened psychological and physical health, decreased quality of life, decreased productivity, and in some cases, mortality. Domestic and family violence can be difficult to identify. Many cases are not reported to health professionals or legal authorities. This activity describes the evaluation, reporting, and management strategies for victims of domestic abuse and stresses the role of team-based interprofessional care for these victims.

Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of physicians, physician associates, nurses, pharmacists, nurse practitioners, and social workers.

Learning Objectives

At the conclusion of this activity, the learner will be better able to:

  • Identify the epidemiology of domestic violence.
  • Describe the types of domestic violence.
  • Explain challenges associated with reporting domestic violence.
  • Review some interprofessional team strategies for improving care coordination and communication to identify domestic violence and improve outcomes for its victims.

I am looking forward to taking other CE from this publisher...and signed up for a year of CE credit after reading through this material! Your 2 sample questions hooked me! They were very good, with details on the rationales for the correct answer...that made my decision to sign up (and pay you money!)

Some of the questions were worded poorly not identifying the subject. One question made it sound as though you were identifying 5% of the male population as being likely to die from their significant other.
