| dc.description.notes | Outlines the methodology and results of an Australian study which examined the impact of domestic violence educational intervention programmes on the attitudes, practices and knowledge of doctors and nurses in a Queensland hospital emergency department. Identical questionnaires were administered to the hospital staff before and after the programme. The results indicate that while doctors and nurses had a general knowledge of domestic violence issues prior to the programme, there was a significant improvement after education, particularly in relation to the legal aspects of domestic violence. Generally, the doctors and nurses did not subscribe to myths about domestic violence but many did fail to perceive domestic violence as an ‘emergency’, associating this more with trauma patients. Concludes that the results of the study highlight the importance of education for medical staff, particularly doctors who may still need to be convinced that domestic violence is a significant public health issue. | en |
