[Can we intervene in child abuse?].
An alarming increase in cases of child abuse compels the nurse to become an active participant in the prevention and early detection of cases of child abuse. Although the Child Care Act, 74 of 1983, imposes a legal duty on nurses to give notification of suspected cases of child abuse, the nurse can play an even greater role by anticipating problems and assisting families to avoid or minimize them. The increased opportunities for nurses to share the responsibility for the prevention of child abuse are challenging.
