The document discusses domestic violence screening in pregnancy within the Northern Women's Community Midwifery Programme in Adelaide, Australia. Midwives recognized domestic violence as an important social health issue and developed a screening tool to assist with inquiry and risk assessment. Research showed that women are more likely to disclose domestic violence if asked multiple times during pregnancy by a midwife they trust. The screening tool is used to identify risk factors, validate women's experiences, and assess ongoing safety risks. Results from 2007-2010 found 38-48% of women reported experiencing domestic violence at some point.
