Successful Integration and Maintenance of Screening for Domestic Violence in the Health Sector

Moving Beyond Individual Responsibility

Wilfreda E. Thurston

University of Calgary

Domestic violence (DV) screening and prevention interventions have been implemented in the health sector; however, few health care settings have successfully implemented protocols that have been fully integrated and sustained within the larger organization. Researchers have tended to focus on individual-level characteristics of health care providers to explain this. The authors argue that organizational, structural, social, and cultural factors, especially related to gender, also play roles in adoption and integration of these interventions. It is important for policy analysts and program evaluators to use this larger framework to ensure sustainable integration of DV screening programs within health care systems.

Key Words: domestic violence • screening • prevention • health sector
