Target Group:
Only available to health and interagency workers with a role in identifying and responding to people who experience domestic/family violence.

Duration:
99 Mins

Description:
Safer Lives, Better Health was developed to promote better understanding and support for people affected by domestic/family violence.

The DVD consists of 5 Menu items containing 7 different chapters, each with its own purpose or theme. The resource reflects the diversity found within the community and health service settings. Viewers will hear from people who have personal experiences of domestic or Aboriginal family violence, as well as from health and interagency workers.

The people interviewed in the DVD contribute to an understanding of the dynamics of domestic/family violence, the tactics used to perpetrate domestic/family violence and the short and long-term health and social effects on those who are victimized.

Health and interagency workers reflect upon a range of responses, which fit with current understandings of good practice. Two dramatisations show health workers' identifying and responding to domestic violence by assessing indicators and conducting routine screening.

The resource reflects NSW Health Policy and Procedures for Identifying and Responding to Domestic Violence (2003) and the NSW Aboriginal Family Health Strategy, however the content is relevant to workers from a range of services.

Mac/PC Dual Format

Category:
Mental Health, Child Protection, Domestic Violence, Sexual Assault

Target Group:
Intended for use by frontline workers in a range of settings including: mental health services, domestic / family violence support services, sexual assault centres, youth services, alcohol and other drugs facilities, and physicians in General Practice.

Description:
The aim of the CD Rom is to enhance the cultural competence of clinicians and case-workers who are working in these areas in relation to suicide risk assessment.

The CD Rom introduces the concept of a 'dual-track suicide risk assessment' model that emphasises the need to assess for risk of harm from another person, at the same time as assessing for risk of harm to self.

An 'intersectional cultural approach' that takes account of the full range of dimensions of human diversity, provides the framework for suicide risk assessment that is proposed in this learning resource.

This learning resource was developed as part of ECAV's 'Interpersonal Trauma, Suicidality & Cultural Diversity' project funded by the Commonwealth Department of Health & Ageing under the National Suicide prevention Strategy.
