520			_aThis article discusses a descriptive study that documents the prevalence of partner violence among women seeking health care in a hauora (Māori health provider general practice clinic). The study, conducted by a bi-cultural research team, measured both lifetime and past year rates of partner violence during a five-week period, of which non-acute, English speaking women, who entered a hauora during 30 randomly selected clinic sessions, were eligible to participate. Participants included 109 women (74% Māori, 18% New Zealand European, with a mean age of 38.8 years) who answered a structured brief questionnaire that was administered verbally. The results show that 23% of women screened positive for partner violence. Of these women 24% had one or more high danger risk factors and 96% reported one or more children living in the household. In terms of reporting a history of partner abuse 78% of the women fell into this category. The types of violence reported were physical (69%), feeling unsafe (56%), and forced sex by a partner (30%). Of the 78% of women who reported a history of violence, 68% responded affirmatively to two or more of the three types of abuse. The authors posit that healthcare providers and the health care system have a responsibility to unite with the community in working towards the non-tolerance of family violence. The findings present the opportunity for healthcare providers to identify and provide services for women and children who experience partner violence. Limitations of the study are discussed.
