TY - JOUR PY - 1993// TI - Violence in transience: nursing care of battered migrant women JO - AWHONN's clinical issues in perinatal and women's health nursing A1 - Rodriguez, R. SP - 437 EP - 440 VL - 4 IS - 3 N2 - Nurses working with migrant farm worker women face serious challenges. Poverty, language, and cultural differences between farm worker women and health care providers present substantial barriers to women obtaining access to the health care system. These differences are especially important in instances of domestic violence. The transient life style of migrant farm workers, combined with geographic and social isolation, make it especially difficult for health care providers to meet the needs of migrant battered women. Strategies for working with migrant battered women are offered.
