dc.description.notesOverview: Intimate partner violence (IPV) is widely recognised as a contributing factor to numerous women’s health issues, including significant impacts on physical and mental health and well-being. In this study from the United States (US), researchers conducted interviews and focus groups with women experiencing IPV to examine the factors and situations associated with turning points for women to change their situation or to view it in a new light.<br/ ><br/ >Methods: Focus groups and individual interviews were conducted with 61 US women with past and/or current histories of IPV. Transcripts of the focus groups and interviews were analysed using a grounded theory approach, from which turning points were identified and grouped into themes.<br/ ><br/ >Conclusions: An understanding of the potential turning points in the situations of women who are experiencing IPV can give health providers increased ability to respond appropriately to their patients. This knowledge allows counselling to be more effectively tailored to an individual’s needs and promotes increased awareness and self-efficacy, ultimately encouraging a patient towards her own defining moment.en
