Assignment:

After having read the websites cited in the introduction and other relevant references, write an essay of 1500 to 2000 words in APA style with at least two references, on the following case study:

A victim of interpersonal violence presents to you as a patient, wanting help to be safe.

Describe the case from the victim’s viewpoint, as though you interviewed the patient to lay a foundation for the intervention.

Then discuss how you would intervene—what education would you give the patient and from what sources?

How would you follow up to see that your patient was safe? How would you deal with the moral distress that you feel if you cannot do anything to help or if your patient is later injured?
