title: Domestic violence disclosure scheme: a guide to Clare's Law for district nurses.
abstract: The Government is rolling out a national Domestic Violence Disclosure Scheme from March 2014 that will allow people who are worried that they may be at risk of violence from their new partner to ask police whether they have a past history of domestic abuse. This article considers the value of the scheme and the role that district nurses must take in promoting the scheme as part of their intervention and support in domestic violence cases.
