Qualitative findings from an Australian study of inter-partner violence content within undergraduate health curriculum

Health care professionals are frequently one of the first points of contact in episodes of intimate partner violence (IPV).

IPV is a serious public health issue with findings from this paper supporting the proposition that key health care workers such as nurses, midwives and paramedics are ill prepared to respond to the challenges it poses.
