1. INVOLVEMENT OF PHCP
No professional can deal alone with family violence
SASA Project Uganda Abramsky T et AL. BMC Medical 2014,12:122
WONCA AFRICA 2015 :
• Firm resolution that GP/FM can be role model
• GP should create a longstanding trusted relationship with the community
• Involve positively community leaders
• Document negative consequences
• Of any kind of violence and agressive acts
• Combat underlying problems (alcohol,views…)
• Feelings of lack of power : action plan needed

ASSISTED DISCLOSURE NEED
1. Health care professionals (HCP) need to (WHO 2013) :
– Ask about FV to promote disclosing
– Assess immediate risks (IPV)
– Assure safety
2. Screening controversial : casefinding unless high risk
3. Detection : 4-10 x if trained, referral : 1/6 (IRIS)
ADAPT TO DIFFERENCES IN PREVALENCE AND CASE MIX (somatic/mental/social lifedomains)

A stepped collaborative care pathway and shared decisionmaking rules
(including sharing information with other providers or lawenforcement)
should be agreed upon
when/before embarking in an active disclosure and referral strategy
MODEL A. DUTCH REPORTING CODE Domestic Violence or child abuse
1. Describe signals ASK 2. Concert with others in own setting DISCUSS 3. Consult advisory- or refer center CONSULT 4. Discuss with client AGREE 5. Weighing violence risk of action ASSESS 6. Decide to assist or report ASSIST REPORT ASSURE FU
MODEL B. Maracs ‘MultiAgency Risk Assessment Comittees’
• Referal of high risk domestic abuse victims
• by care providers or police
• Based on common assessment tool
• Information shared between local agencies
• Ensuring voice of the victim is heard
• Risk focused
• Co-ordinated safety plan made

Model C. FAMILY JUSTICE CENTER
“COMPLEX CASES ARE NOT NECESSARILY HIGH RISK SITUATIONS AND MAY BENEFIT FROM
DIRECT COLLABORATIVE APPROACHES !”

Identification and referral to Improve Safety G Feder Bristol University (2012)
WHO 2013 review on training
• Most programs oriented to identification
• Most show some increase in knowlegde
• Training in adequate referral is essential
• Interactive methods show changes in identification, attitudes and behavior of PHP
• Simulations, role play and multimedia use
• Training may need to be accompanied by changes in systems of care and referral
General review on training methods Ester Cornelis, Kristof Hillemans, Leo Pas
(Domus Medica report 2007)
• Combination different methodologies superior
• Facilitators in practice most effective
• Individual training supperior to group approach
• Experience based best
• Interactive any way
• Monitoring needed with feedback

o offers emotional and practical support to victims
o provides choices and empowers clients
o patient-led: flexible according to woman’s situation,pace,readiness to change and goals
o offers referrals to wide range of services across all levels of risk
o offers long-term support (rather than short-term crisis intervention)
o provides advocacy for those that may not otherwise access support

DOVE HOMEVISITING PROJECT COMPARING TRAINED HOMEVISITORS’ WITH TABLET ASSISTED APPROACH
Lorraine Bacchus et AL,2015.
• Women and home visitors were supportive of IPV screening and interventions in the home, but it was challenging to see women alone.
• Nurse-patient interaction and trust was at the core of developing positive and therapeutic relationships and was necessary for the home visitor administered and computer tablet method
• Importance of skill building and practice-enabling components of IPV training programmes and use of teaching methods that facilitate experiential learning and reflective practice and feedback.

III. Workshop discussions
ADAPTING STRATEGY TO CARE SITUATION, COUNTRIES & CULTURES
Possibilities :
1.Through your own network or profession ?
2.Transmit potential contacts in your country ?
3.Describe available strategies/pathways locally ?
4.Compare implementation strategies locally ?
1. What tasks can different care professionals realize to combat FV ? 2. How can this be organized in your health care setting and profession? 3. How should this be further supported?

Questions for discussion
Provisional statements From earlier WONCA discussions Prague, Kuching, Lisboa, Dubrovnic
SIMPLE COUNSELING CAN REDUCE MENTAL HEALTH CONSEQUENCES OF FV AT LEAST
PHCP CAN AND SHOULD PROVIDE ACTIVE LISTENING AND EMPOWERMENT SUPPORT FOR VICTIMS, INCLUDING THEIR CHILDREN
• MORE TRAINING IS NEEDED AND FOLLOWED BY FIELD SUPPORT STRATEGY TO INCREASE DISCLOSURE, COUNSELING AND COLLABORATIVE CARE (VS REFERRAL)
• SUPPORTIVE STRATEGIES AND CLEAR CARE PATHWAYS
– TO BE ADAPTED TO LOCAL HEALTH SERVICE SETTINGS – PRIOR TO LARGE SCALE PROMOTING DISCLOSURE
• SENSITIVITY TO CULTURAL DIFFERENCES AND VALUES IMPORTANT • ELECTRONIC HEALTH CARE FACILITIES CAN BE A POWERFULL ADJUNCTS
• SHARING INFORMATION AND CONFIDENTIALITY TO BE PLANNED THOROUGHLY
Provisional WONCA SIGFV STATEMENT ON FV
1. PHC SHOULD PROMOTE
– PERSONAL ALERTNESS FOR DIFFERENT PRESENTATIONS OF FV – OWN AND PHC AWARENESS FOR ADEQUATE COUNSELING SKILLS – COMMUNITY AWARENESS – POSITIVE INVIOLVEMENT OF COMMUNITY LEADERS – PATHWAYS TO AVAILABLE SOCIAL CARE – LOOK FOR PROVISIONS FOR SAFETY (SHELTERS, LEGAL CHANGES) – PROMOTE NEW SUPPORT (eg. HELPLINE , INCREASE PRACTICE NURSES …?)
2. FIRST AND SECOND LINE COLLABORATION IN RURAL AREAS – TOOLS NEEDED FOR EDUCATION : blended learning programme development – EVALUATION IN RURAL SETTTINGS : difficulties , online helpline ?
3. PHC SHOULD CONSIDER LEAGL ASPECTS & ROLE OF LAW ENFORCEMENT • NO MANDATORY REPORTING (WHO 2013) • HOW TO SHARE INFORMATION IN CARE • PROTOCOLS HOW TO INVOLVE DIFFERENT PROFESSIONALS
Provisional STATEMENT SHARING INFORMATION
• All Health care, social care and mental health care providers should recognise that nobody can provide help for family violence on all needed domains.
• Hence sharing information is essential within limits of professional confidentiality
• Immediate risk estimation is essential at suspicion in any primary health care setting
• Sharing information should first be considered within own service or with referent professional supervisors
• Sharing information only relevant for care by the other professions consulted should always be considered in Multidisciplinary care
• If possibilities to secure assistance and assure safety are exhausted sharing risk estimation with other professions and sectors of care is needed.
• If care provision can not secure security by any other care service involving Lawenforcement is justified
• It should be preferably performed with agreement of client, but not necessarily so in case of vital danger

PROJECT DEALING WITH THE RELATIONSHIP OF MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEMS AND VIOLENCE IN PRIMARY CARE: SEARCH FOR PARTNERS
Leo Pas, Hagit Dascal, Shelly Rothschild, Carmen Fernandez, Raquel Gomez, Nena Kopcavar, Marouan Zoghbi, Kelsey Hegarty
Research hypotheses :
• There is a strong relation between mental health problems and family violence • A CBT model exploring with empathy emotions and thoughts and challenging
behaviour may be effective to improve outcomes for related mental health and family violence problems
Research questions :
• Effects of blended training strategy on CBT performance of GP/FM students for MH ?
• What are the effects of the proposed model to casefinding and outcomes of family violence ?
Methodology proposed :
• Feasibility study training counselling Mental Health/FV with CBT using: – WEBBASED CASE-VIGNETTES AND SCRIPTS (INCREASING COMPLEXITY INCL FAMILY VIOLENCE) – SKILLS TRAINING EXCERCISES – PRACTICE ASSIGNMENTS and FOLLOW-UP
• Cluster RCT practices with/without vocationally trained students : – DETECTION – COUNSELING PROCESS AND OUTCOME – REFFERRAL
