New resources help nursing staff identify victims of domestic abuse The RCN has developed new support to help nurses and midwives identify and care for patients who have experienced domestic abuse.
The resources are designed to assist nurses and midwives in supporting their patients and clients, but also recognise that nurses and midwives may themselves be victims of domestic abuse, with information about ways to seek help and tips for staying safe online.
The resources have been compiled by a panel of experts, including RCN members, and have information for nursing staff who may be the perpetrators of domestic abuse.
They also include the key indicators for identifying cases of domestic abuse, using NICE standards and links to UK-wide guidance and publications. Royal College of Nursing
