Abstract

The advent of COVID-19 as a global public health crisis in 2020 was quickly followed by predictions regarding likely increases in occurrences of domestic and family violence (DFV). The aim of this study was to understand the impact of the pandemic on practitioner experiences of DFV in one service organisation in New South Wales, Australia. Qualitative focus group interviews were performed with senior practitioners at Relationships Australia (NSW), and a grounded theory approach was employed in formulation of a perspective which highlighted social isolation under public health management social distancing measures as that which distinguished practitioner experiences of DFV during COVID-19. Social isolation was conceived as the overarching factor across categorisations of practitioner responses, including: (a) situations of client domestic relations; (b) client general life circumstances; (c) emerging client self-awareness; (d) organisational and social systems changes; and (e) necessary work practice changes. Organisational and workplace recommendations address the relative difference of pandemic management measures from natural disaster occurrences, with respect to supporting people experiencing DFV.

2019冠状病毒病家庭暴力执业经验
2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)在2020年成为全球公共卫生危机之后,很快就出现了有关家庭暴力事件可能增加的预测。本研究的目的是了解大流行对澳大利亚新南威尔士州一家服务机构的DFV从业人员经验的影响。对澳大利亚关系协会(NSW)的高级从业人员进行了定性焦点小组访谈,并采用扎根理论方法制定了一个观点,该观点强调了公共卫生管理下的社会隔离,社会距离措施是区分COVID-19期间DFV从业人员经历的因素。社会孤立被认为是所有从业者答复类别中的首要因素,包括:(a)客户家庭关系状况;(b)客户一般生活情况;(c)新兴的客户自我意识;(d)组织和社会制度的变化;(e)必要的工作实践变更。组织和工作场所的建议解决了大流行管理措施与自然灾害发生时的相对差异,即在支持遭受DFV的人方面。
