  6. “We can prevent domestic abuse; Ontario campaign encourages awareness” • Neighbors, Friends, and Families is a high profile provincial campaign • Goal: prevent domestic abuse in all forms; in particularly women • Society need to get involved – It’s all about engagement • We need to acknowledge the warning signs of domestic violence when it’s about to happen • 25 domestic homicides, studied by the 2002 Domestic Violence Death Review committee concluded that all were preventable • Time to change for the better – Social Approach Clairmont, S. (2007). We can prevent domestic abuse; Ontario campaign encourages awareness. The Hamilton Spectator. Retrieved October 23, 2009, from E Library database <http://elibrary.bigchalk.com> - Jalyn

  7. Connections To Unit/Topic • The Bystander Effect – People are not responding to the warning signs of domestic violence, no one make the effort to intervene, reach out, or help. Individuals assume someone else would take care of it. • Mass Media – The Neighbors, Friends, and Families campaign included television ads, brochures, and a website to convey messages as well as inform people about the issues and what is needed to be done. • Case Study/Phenomenology – The 2002 Domestic Violence Death Review committee studied 25 spousal homicides. The report stated that each case could have been prevented. • Psychology – Characteristics of men and women in a domestic abuse situation: Male abuser always puts the woman down, and checks up on her all the time (even at work). The female victim is always nervous to talk when the man is there, and makes frequent excuses about why she can’t meet you or tries to avoid you. These are natural psychological responses to situations like these. Clairmont, S. (2007). We can prevent domestic abuse; Ontario campaign encourages awareness. The Hamilton Spectator.

  8. “Are clinicians being prepared to care for abused women?” Objective • Are there educational opportunities available to future health care providers on the topic of intimate partner violence (IPV) against women? Method • Province-wide survey • A team of specialists identified university and college programs in Ontario, Canada as possible providers of IPV education to students in health care professions at the undergraduate and post-graduate levels. • Telephone survey method • The survey asked whether IPV-specific education was provided to learners, and if so, how and by whom. Conclusions • 222 qualified programs in dentistry, medicine, *nursing and other *related health professions were surveyed (95% of the programs responded) • 57% offered some form of IPV-specific education • Opportunities for a consistent response by health care professionals to women experiencing the effects of violence may not match the reality of professional preparation.
