abstract="Significant numbers of women experience physical, sexual, and psychological abuse by their partners or family members and come to the emergency department for care. The nurse has a unique opportunity to make a difference in these women's lives by simply asking about the abuse in a caring and confidential manner. Listening and thinking in terms of a stage-based approach to behavioral change with battered women may guide the emergency nurse toward more effective intervention strategies. The goal is not to &quot;fix it&quot; but rather to partner with her and offer options that may help shift her trajectory toward more safety and less isolation.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
