This guideline is a practical tool to help health providers make safe and effective interventions to assist victims of interpersonal violence and abuse. It has been written as a generic health professional guideline, setting out principles of intervention that will apply to a number of health professions and a number of clinical settings.

The guideline presents a six step model for identifying and responding to family violence within health care settings. Given the co-occurrence of partner abuse and child abuse, the guidelines also outlines an integrated response to addressing both of these issues. The guidelines have been endorsed by a number of health professional and family violence intervention organisations.

The guidelines are intended for use in conjunction with health professional training offered through the Ministry of Health Violence Intervention Programme. (From the website). This document updates and replaces the Family violence intervention guidelines: child and partner abuse published in 2002. Record #5067
