Services
Onsite medical services: Once domestic violence is identified, connection to supportive resources is critical. The DV-CHW service model creates a process for a warm hand-off from the health professional to the DV-CHW, who will then provide community-based assistance that is easily accessed by the victim in a safe setting, offering help, discussing risks and developing a safety plan, getting connected to healthcare and supportive services that will foster safety for themselves and their children. The service is victim-centered and is tailored to the goals and needs the victim/patient identifies.
