abstract="Primary health care (PHC) can improve the health of women who have experienced intimate partner violence (IPV), yet, access to, and fit of PHC services may be shaped by income and racialization. We examined whether income and racialization were associated with differences in PHC service use, unmet need, fit with needs, and mental and physical health in a sample of 286 women who had separated from an abusive partner. Mothers, unemployed women and those with lower incomes used more PHC services and reported poorer fit of services. Poorer fit of services was related to poorer mental and physical health.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
