dc.description.notesThe relationship between the severity of abuse and use of community resources was examined in the primary health care setting. Information was gathered on the demographics and ethnicity (African American, Hispanic or Caucasian) of 199 pregnant US women who had been sexually and physically assaulted by their male partners, and the resources they had contacted. The sample of pregnant women was selected because of their regular contact with health professionals. Findings show the most commonly used resource for women was police. Supports the ‘survivorship model’ whereby abused women utilised more resources to cope with any increases in abuse. This indicates the failure of police and other services to adequately meet the needs of women. For Hispanic women, language was a barrier to accessing resources.en
