dc.description.notes“The paper was first presented at the Home Truths Conference, Melbourne 15-17 September 2004.”<br/ >Looks briefly at the history of screening for violence against women and presents the various arguments for and against it. Acknowledges that routine screening during pregnancy by the health system is gaining in popularity and has been accompanied by the development of standardised screening tools, but suggests that screening may find only those women who have already begun to seek help. Voices concerns that screening tools tend to emphasise only physical violence, which counters current thinking on domestic violence, and that the help offered to women at the time of screening may compromise their safety. Discusses author’s research into to whom women might talk if they experience behaviours included in the modified Abusive Behaviour Inventory:. Concludes that better training and resourcing of health professionals would lead to more appropriate treatment of a complex problem.en
