[Identify domestic violence experienced by pregnant women and understand its impact].

Abstract

Pregnancy and the postnatal period are two vulnerable times when there is a high risk of domestic violence. Consequently, they must be carefully observed and, if necessary, protection must be provided. In this context, the home visit is a very good tool for perinatal professionals to identify the situation. In view of the complexity of the cases encountered, and in order to be able to offer the best possible protection to the victims, networking seems essential.
