Acknowledging You ۰ Individual and collective Personal experience Professional experience Research endeavors
Trauma Informed Care ۰ Assessment and modification at all levels of an organization Ensure basic understanding of how trauma impacts whole person § § § Triggers and vulnerabilities Seeks to avoid re-traumatization Creating supportive services and work environments “Traumatic experiences can be dehumanizing, shocking or terrifying, singular or multiple compounding events over time, and often include betrayal of a trusted person or institution and a loss of safety. ” (SAMHSA, 2013)
Basic Premises ۰ Short and long-term psychological and physiological impacts on both a mother, her child, family, community and society ۰ Perinatal care providers close relationships Intersection at critical time Safe/respectful environment ۰ Effective interventions improve safety and outcomes ۰ Women as experts in own reality
A few caveats ۰ The topic is extremely complex, multifaceted with overlapping dimensions ۰ Uncoordinated approaches ۰ Research is fragmented ۰ Social and health services are fragmented ۰ Women’s perpetration of violence against their partners ۰ Minor focus on perpetration of violence
Definitions ۰ ۰ Intimate partner violence (IPV) vs. domestic violence (DV) IPV § Reproductive/sexual coercion § ۰ “Pattern of assaultative and coercive behaviors that may include inflected physical injury, psychological abuse, sexual assault, progressive isolation, stalking, deprivation, intimidation, and threats… aimed at establishing control by one partner over the other. ” “…involves behaviors to maintain power and control in relationship related to reproductive health … behaviors that interfere with contraception use and/or pregnancy. ” × Birth control sabotage, pregnancy pressure and coercion, sexual coercion Variations making research difficult
Some of What We Know ۰ Greater frequency than other high-risk conditions ۰ Increased prevalence in economically disadvantaged communities and when higher margin of inequality § Highest prevalence in tribal communities ۰ “…Maternal depression may itself represent the first adverse life event to which one can be exposed. ” (Neigh, 2009)
Who, When & How Much? ۰ ۰ 1 in 4 women physically /sexually assaulted by current or former partner 40% teen moms experienced IPV 66% on public assistance disclosed birth control sabotage 3. 5 times more likely to become pregnant than non-abused Of those seeking abortions: ۰ ۰ ۰ § 3 times more likely victimized than women continuing pregnancy (FWV, 2012) 66% of murdered women known to have experienced violence beforehand (Plichta, 2005) Murder is the second most common cause of injury-related death for pregnant women (31%) after car accidents. (Chang et al. , 2005) 13 -24% pregnancy associated deaths due to homicide (Plichta, 2005)
Who, When & How Much? ۰ ۰ ۰ ۰ 13 -50% report abuse in pregnancy as the first episode Research shows it is dramatically underreported and not enough providers feel comfortable asking the questions. More common than gestational diabetes or preeclampsia One of the most common reasons for women and their children becoming homeless 66% of murdered women known to have experienced violence beforehand (Plichta, 2005) Murder is the second most common cause of injury-related death for pregnant women (31%) after car accidents. (Chang et al. , 2005) 13 -24% pregnancy associated deaths due to homicide (Plichta, 2005)
Who, When & How Much? ۰ Increased child abuse occurrence with DV, “ 30 -60% of perpetrators of IPV also abuse children in household. ” ۰ “Witnessing violence between one’s parents or caretakers is the strongest risk factor of transmitting violent behavior from one generation to the next. ”
Roots of Violence ۰ Socio-cultural Oppression § § Macro-Micro Colonialism-Bullying ۰ Epidemic of the disease ۰ Public health problem ۰ Eradication lies at the root § Clinical interventions reduce harm and decrease spread
Cycle of Overlapping Violence Socio-cultural-historical ? CHILDHOOD: Exposure to violence ADULT IPV BULLYING DATING VIOLENCE Dr. Claire Crooks, 2010
Intersection of Violence and Pregnancy ۰ For some, abuse may begin or escalate in pregnancy. ۰ For others, it may decrease of pause. ۰ Some women are more likely to leave because their pregnancy is a motivator for them ۰ It can also be a time of increased vulnerability where a woman may feel more dependent on her abuser (WA DOH, 2008)

Recommendations ۰ USPTF ۰ The USPSTF recommends that clinicians screen women of childbearing age for intimate partner violence, such as domestic violence, and provide or refer women who screen positive to intervention services. Grade B recommendation 2013 ACNM “Certified Nurse-Midwives (CNMs) and Certified Midwives (CMs), as advocates for and providers of primary women’s health care, have a critical role to play in mitigating the effects of violence in women’s lives. ” CNMs and CMs must understand the dynamics of violence against women and the impact of violence on the lives of women and their children. ” Appropriate assessment, intervention and referral for violence against women should be an integral part of all midwifery care. ” ACNM Position Statement on Violence Against Women
Recommendations ۰ ACOG Based on the prevalence and health burden of IPV among women, education during obstetric visits; and ongoing clinical care can improve the lives of women who experience IPV. Preventing the lifelong consequences associated with IPV can have a positive effect on the reproductive, perinatal, and overall health of all women. ۰ IOM Recommendation 5. 7: The committee recommends for consideration as a preventative service for women: screening and counseling for interpersonal and domestic violence. Screening and counseling involve elicitation of information from women and adolescents about current and past violence and abuse in a culturally sensitive and supportive manner to address current health concerns about safety and other current or future health problems.

Because of my professional responsibilities, I’m required to report any abuse or neglect of a child. Before we begin, do you have any questions about this? ” (WA DOH, 2008)
