Coping With Domestic Violence: Strategies and Techniques-Click Here
One of the problems pervasive to our culture is domestic violence. We hear reports of emotional and physical abuse and neglect on a daily basis. The phenomenon is not new. It has in fact existed for centuries, but it is only in the last few years that domestic violence has been brought to the forefront. Abuse and neglect affect an alarming radius of one's life--personally as well as at the workplace. This problem with violence is usually interdependent with another problem. Understanding the mutual influences and the symbiotic relationships is necessary for the health professional to effectively assess and manage these cases. The question before us now is, "What can be done to reverse the alarming trend?" and "How can we protect those being affected?" This course will focus on those issues.
