    Abstract

    Domestic violence and abuse (DVA) can have a significant impact on a person's physical and mental health. Healthcare professionals (HCPs) have a responsibility to respond appropriately to disclosures of DVA, and to follow relevant escalation pathways to ensure a multi-professional approach where necessary. It is a frequent complaint of healthcare professionals that documentation is not shared correctly (or at all), that information recorded within these documents is not accurate (Dheensa and Feder, 2022) or always acted upon.
