Abstract:

The victim impact statement (VIS) is a written account of harms experienced as a result of crime. This study investigates VIS use by sexually assaulted women through interviews with Canadian victims, victim services workers, and feminist advocates (N = 35). Findings suggest that victims use the VIS to express relational caring. Relational caring is an ethic of care that prioritizes others through privileging the harms experienced by others because of witnessing the sexual assault or coping with the victim’s postassault sequelae, protecting future or hypothetical victims, and promoting the inte

Abstract:

Background Domestic violence (DV) is a neglected topic in health care, resulting in delays in the identification of DV victims and suboptimal care. Purpose The attitudes of health care professionals (HCPs) toward stigmas associated with victims of DV can affect the care offered to the latter. The HCPs' attitude toward victims of DV is therefore an important but neglected topic in health care research. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine whether awareness training changes HCPs' attitudes toward victims of DV, especially with regard to their stigmatization. Methodology Problem-

Abstract:

Caring for and identifying a victim of sex trafficking can be very challenging at times. Sex trafficking victims often don't see themselves as victims and often times are victimized by a boyfriend or relative. These patients can be non-compliant with treatments and difficult to provide follow up care. Often times the only time they are receiving medical care is when they are in the emergency department as many of these patients do not seek routine medical care through a family practioner.

Abstract:

This article analyses the importance of the family environment of victims of human trafficking in Peru, before and after exploitation. Based on interviews with 30 victims and 10 family members, it demonstrates that families, primarily mothers, can play a powerful role in both preventing victimisation and assisting victims to recover from human trafficking experiences. Family structure and background can increase victims’ vulnerability, yet the families are also the ones that protect and take care of victims. However, government officials often blame parents and family members for victims’ expl

The potential for hospital-based interventions for male victims of intimate partner violence (IPV) as well as adult perpetrators of both genders has been largely unexplored despite early evidence of acute-care utilization that may be as high as female victims. The current investigation compared the emergency department (ED) and injury-related-hospitalization rates of IPV-involved individuals against standardized national norms, assessing differences by gender and victim/perpetrator-status.

In this case, women and children are given extra legal protection because they are vulnerable to becoming victims of violence. In Gorontalo itself, the number of sexual violence increases every year. This is corroborated by the findings of cases of sexual violence from November 2019 to 2022, namely 105 cases.

The characteristics of Alzheimer's disease (AD) create specialized problems of care for the Alzheimer's patient. Treatment for AD victims does not only involve medical procedures; rather, Alzheimer's disease is what Kahn termed a bio-psycho-social phenomenon. 1 Since the epidemiology of the disease is not treatable as such, the emphasis of Alzheimer's care is on management of its physical, social, and psychological manifestations. Therefore, nursing home care and home health care are not sufficient for AD victims. Alzheimer's patients need the specialized care we've called Alzheimer's care, wh

We developed and tested a framework to understand why. We argue that violence victims must consider their need for care and three situational factors of victimization that may serve as barriers for care seeking: the victim’s relationship to the offender, their victimization history, and the offense committed (sexual vs. nonsexual).

Abstract:

The concept of the second victim, described as the sense of victimization of health care professionals following the exposure to a traumatic, unanticipated medical error, was first introduced in 2000 by Albert W.

With most second victim occurrences resulting from medication errors, pediatric pharmacists are at a high risk of experiencing second victim phenomenon.

Purpose: Human trafficking (HT) is the fastest growing crime in the world and a major health concern for healthcare. There is a critical lack of healthcare provider targeted HT education, resulting in the failure to identify, rescue, and provide proper care for victims of HT in the United States. All healthcare professionals must be vigilant and proactive in identifying and assisting victims of HT.

Medical responses to victims included counseling, treatment, and referrals, although rural HCPs reported fewer available services than in urban settings. HCPs attributed the limited response to IPV victims to unclear laws and fragmented care, especially in a culture where IPV remains largely

Abstract:

We address the problem of picking up, stabilizing, and transporting casualties in response to mass-injury disasters. Our proposed methodology establishes the itinerary for collecting, on-site stabilization, and transporting victims considering capacitated vehicles and medical care centers. Unlike previous works, we minimize the time required to achieve on-site stabilization of each victim according to his age and level of severity of the injuries for their subsequent transfer to specialized medical centers. Thus, more critical patients will be the first to be stabilized, maximizing their chanc

Abstract:

Background Despite the availability of a well-developed holistic care model for victims of conflict-related sexual violence, little is known about the factors that determine late presentation for care post-sexual violence care. Drawing from data from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, this study aimed to determine obstacles to accessing emergency medical care within 72-hours of sexual violence (SV). Methods We retrospectively analyzed data from 4048 victims of SV treated at Panzi Hospital (PH) in Bukavu city between 2015 and 2018. The factors of access to care within 72h were analyzed using

Abstract:

Introduction/Innovation Concept: Estimates suggest that up to eighty-seven percent of human trafficking victims have come into contact with a healthcare provider during their exploitation and yet less than ten percent of emergency medicine (EM) physicians feel confident in identifying a victim. When provided with the relevant tools, medical personnel can aid in the recognition of victims and take the necessary steps in providing appropriate care when they present to the emergency department. Identifying this need for increased awareness in the urgent care setting, a module on human trafficking

Abstract:

<p>A thorough understanding of experiences of Emergency Medical Services (EMS) personnel related to the field transfer of burn victims can be used as a prerequisite of quality improvement of pre-hospital clinical care for these kinds of victims. The aim of the present study was to explore the experiences of EMS personnel during transferring burn victims. In this qualitative research, content analysis was performed to explore the experiences and perceptions of a purposeful sample of Iranian EMS personnel (n = 32). Data collection continued until a point of saturation was reached. Data was

Abstract:

In this issue of Pediatrics is a study1 that represents a milestone in the growth and development of Emergency Medical Services for Children systems. Linda Quan and co-workers provide us with a study of victims of submersion who were less than 20 years of age and who received care during a 10-years interval in an Emergency Medical Services unit and required hospitalization or died. Because the majority of these submersions occurred in the urban setting of King Country with the rapid response of Emergency Medical Services units and reliable recording of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) data,
