Abstract

We examined the usefulness of information cards provided to women disclosing intimate partner violence at a healthcare visit. In general, women most in need of services were more likely to keep and use the card, suggesting that the card may be an important way of linking women to services.

Nous avons examiné l’utilité de cartes d’information offertes aux femmes qui ont signalé des cas de violence conjugale lors d’une visite en clinique. En général, les femmes ayant le plus besoin de services étaient plus susceptibles de conserver et d’utiliser la carte, ce qui suggère que la carte peut être une façon importante d’aiguiller les femmes vers les services appropriés.
