Course overview

Domestic violence is often hidden behind cultural norms, fear, denial, and systemic barriers that prevent victims from seeking help. This course equips healthcare professionals with the knowledge and skills to identify, assess, intervene, and support individuals affected by domestic violence while addressing cultural influences that may perpetuate abuse or discourage disclosure. Participants will explore the intersection of patient safety, medical errors, underreporting, and cultural sensitivity, while learning trauma-informed, legally compliant, and ethically sound approaches to care.
