Description:
This study describes attitudes and barriers of health clinic staff about the use of an IPV screening tool and protocol at three reproductive health care centers. A mixed-method design was used to collect focus group and survey data from 100 health clinic staff, which included advanced practice clinicians, social workers, and health care assistants. Focus groups were also conducted with experts from 10 community domestic violence agencies about strengthening collaborations between domestic violence agencies and reproductive health clinics.
