The authors also sought the opinions of GPs regarding the prevalence of family violence in their practices. The study was based on three focus group discussions conducted in 2002. Participants were 18 GPs from southern New Zealand urban and rural general practices, Student Health and one medical officer from a provincial hospital. The groups' discussions were audio taped, transcribed, then analysed and coded using qualitative methodology. Findings showed that participating GPs thought they were in a good position to identify and manage family violence. Participants estimated family violence prevalence in their practice populations as low in comparison with community-based research findings. The authors identified many barriers to GP identification and management of family violence that they argue must be considered in developing guidelines and training, referral systems and support for GPs. The authors recommended such training and coordinated support and referral systems be put in place in order to improve GP's identification and management of family violence.
