These videos for medical professionals hope to achieve several things. First, to help medical professionals understand and identify domestic abuse since nearly 80% of female victims of domestic abuse visit emergency departments for medical treatment, and as many as 72% are not identified as victims. Second, to empower you to respond effectively to the needs of the survivor and be able to offer options that could include contacting Safe Harbor. And third, learn the warning signs of domestic abuse, and be able to talk with your patients safely.
