dc.description.notesVery comprehensive Canadian resource which aims to help health and social service professionals to identify and respond appropriately to the needs of women who are abused during pregnancy. Defines abuse and describes its dynamics, with particular detail about the dynamics of abuse during a women’s’ child bearing years (linked to sexuality, conception, pregnancy, childbirth and parenting). Outlines the impacts of abuse in pregnancy on the woman, the foetus, the infant and other children in the family. Addresses the issue of responding to abuse during pregnancy in some detail, including identifying abuse, screening for abuse, handling difficult situations, assessment/history taking, assessing risk and documenting abuse. Also deals with structural barriers to a more effective response to women abused during pregnancy. The appendices contain sample protocols and flow charts which it is suggested could be used as a set of suggestions and examples for practitioners to use in developing their own tools for addressing the problem of abuse during pregnancy. Concludes with a bibliography.en
