Royal Women’s Hospital Relationship and Safety Tool

We know that many people have issues with their relationships, and this can affect their health, so we often ask patients a set of questions about home life and relationships.

• Answering these questions will help us understand how we can best provide care. All people deserve healthy relationships where they are treated with respect, kindness and feel safe and supported.

• Your doctor or nurse will ask if you wish to talk about your answers.

• Using this tool, we ask about recent experiences in relationship/s with the patient’s partner or ex-partner, boyfriend or girlfriend or other family members.
