%X Few hospitals have standard approaches to recognizing and treating victims of abuse. When staff at the Toronto Hospital realized they had no guidelines for handling such cases, they formed a task force to research the issue. The result was a set of policies and procedures which clearly outline the duties of staff who suspect abuse and, at the same time, make clear the hospital's role in addressing this serious issue.<p /><p>Language: en</p>
