Description:
OPD Points: 5
Identifying and responding to sexual violence presentations is critically important in providing appropriate trauma informed care and responses to victim-survivors, and to prevent further harm and re-victimisation.
Sexual violence in the context of family violence is a serious and prevalent issue that impacts the health, wellbeing, and safety of millions of Australians, especially women and children. Sexual violence against women and children is an insidious form of family violence that can have serious and lasting consequences for victim-survivors, their families, and communities.
