Webinar: How can we enhance routine screening?

About the Webinar

“You don’t want her to feel like you’re just there asking questions, you want her to feel like she’s being cared for and nurtured so that she can disclose information to you.”  - Midwife, Focus Group participant, The SUSTAIN Study

Research has found that domestic violence often begins or escalates in severity when women are pregnant. Routine antenatal domestic violence screening offers an important point for early engagement with women.

This webinar will explore the challenges of effectively implementing antenatal domestic violence screening in complex health care settings.

Drawing on indicative findings of ANROWS research (the SUSTAIN study), this expert panel of health practitioners and researchers discuss:

  • how practitioners experience routine domestic violence screening

  • how they have improved identification and response practices

  • key recommendations of The REAL Transformation Model

  • how the model can be implemented.

There will also be a live Q&A.

This webinar is designed for:

  • those who work with women who experience domestic and family violence and also access pregnancy care or other health services

  • multidisciplinary practitioners and policymakers working within pregnancy care and other health services, and domestic and family violence services.
