| dc.description.notes | General Overview: :This study of the Western Australian response to domestic violence finds that the health sector’s response to domestic violence is often limited to the provision of medical treatment for victims and is marked by poor collaboration with the domestic violence sector.<br/ ><br/ >Discussion: :The authors used snowball sampling to identify 30 individuals representing the health policy community, the domestic violence community and other interested stakeholders in Western Australia. These participants were asked to identify lead agencies in the field of domestic violence. Health agencies were not identified.<br/ ><br/ >Further exploration revealed that there were many strong grass roots networks between domestic violence workers and health sector workers. However, the relationships at policy setting levels are minimal and a number of respondents indicated that the Department of Health placed a low priority on domestic violence. Possible reasons for these deficits are explored. The authors call for the health sector to go beyond rhetoric in its commitment to address domestic violence, and to collaborate with the domestic violence community. | en |
