TY - JOUR PY - 1993// TI - Nursing interventions for abused women on obstetrical units JO - AWHONN's clinical issues in perinatal and women's health nursing A1 - Bullock, L. F. SP - 371 EP - 377 VL - 4 IS - 3 N2 - Battering is a public health problem that traditionally has been ignored by nurses, which has conveyed acceptance and approval of violence. Using the Betty Neuman Health Care System Model, nurses on obstetrical units can understand the health effects battering has on the mother and infant. Battering puts the woman at serious risk. By systematically addressing this stressor, nurses can improve the health and quality of life of the mother and newborn.
