HEALTH SECTOR TRAINING IN FAMILY VIOLENCE PREVENTIONPROJECT OVERVIEWThe IssuesHealth professionals are probably the most common contact points for young children andfamilies/whanau. It’s now acknowledged that the health sector has an important role to play inpreventing family violence. It’s also recognised that that tools, resources and training need tobe provided to a range of professionals within the broader health sector to both increaseunderstanding of the issues/effects of family violence and enable more effective responses byhealth professionals to evidence/suspicions of family violence.There are also important issues about consistency of training across the health sector,appropriate support for staff (who may also be/have experienced family violence in their ownlives), cultural appropriateness of training and the need for training to be ongoing.From National to LocalAt the national level, family violence intervention guidelines have now been developed alongwith a health sector training package. The latter initiative is based on a “train the trainer”approach and focuses on a process of identification and referral. Specific training packageshave been developed for those working in DHBs, general practice and maternity care. Due toresource constraints, only a small number of local “trainers” will be trained across the country.However, a HUGE opportunity still exists to expand and fast track violence prevention trainingwithin the health sector in Waitakere (covering public, private and community sectororganisations). A comprehensive training plan should be developed through which localorganisations:qqqqqqqqIdentify family violence prevention as both an organisation and sector priorityInclude family violence training within workforce development plansIdentify types of health professionals who should be at the highest priority to receive trainingShare training programmes/trainers, resources, toolkits, referral and people expertise(especially with community sector agencies)Share experiences of what’s worked/what hasn’t/what else is needed to enhance familyviolence prevention within the local health sectorPromote an ongoing and coordinated approach to family violence prevention in the CityIdentify additional resources required to enhance existing prevention training initiativesLeverage additional resources to undertake/expand training initiatives over timePAGE 14
