Integrating intimate partner violence prevention into daily practice.
Research on IPV has mainly focused on the identification of abuse, rather than on evaluating interventions that aim for long-term effects. Until there are well-designed studies to determine which prevention strategies are most effective, nurses can use their counseling and education skills to ensure that women are screened and that resources are made available to those who screen positive. Web-based resources and clinical practice guidelines that nurses can use are presented in the Sidebar.
