Leading domestic violence scholar featured in new lecture series
Health care professionals must actively engage with people who have experienced domestic violence to connect them to needed services, said Professor Jacquelyn Campbell, PhD, MSN, RN, FAAN, in the inaugural presentation of the Carla Diaz-Lewis Domestic Violence Lecture Series on October 13, 2021.
约翰·霍普金斯护理学院的安娜·D·沃尔夫（Anna D. Wolf）主席坎贝尔（Campbell）解释了许多令人痛苦的统计数据，并描述了许多识别，解决，预防和治愈家庭暴力的方法。休斯敦德克萨斯大学健康科学中心（Uthealth Houston）的教职员工，教职员工和社区支持者实际上并亲自参加了Cizik护理学院。学校的护理研究中心主持了该计划。beplay苹果手机能用吗
坎贝尔指出，被亲密伴侣杀害的妇女经常在上一年寻求医疗保健。
她说：“我们在医疗保健系统中所做的部分是让那些与家庭暴力服务联系在一起的妇女。”她指出，积极参与该过程而不是简单地提供推荐信息的重要性。“我们必须为他们做那座桥。”
Campbell’s lecture served as a springboard for a panel discussion that followed. Professor Judith McFarlane, DrPH, RN, served as moderator. She is the Parry Nursing Chair in Health Promotion - Houston Center at Texas Women’s University. Expert panelists were Maisha Colter, MSW, JD, CEO of Aid to Victims of Domestic Abuse; Sandra Sanchez, MSN, RN, SANE-A, SANE-P, forensic program nursing director at Harris Health System;Rebecca Tsusaki, PhD, RN, WHNP-BC, IBCLC, assistant professor of Graduate Studies at Cizik School of Nursing; and Nagi M. Demian, DDS, MD, professor of oral and maxillofacial surgery at UTHealth Houston School of Dentistry.
麦克法兰（McFarlane）向小组提出了有关有效计划的问题，并在与经历过家庭暴力的人进行初次接触后，以防止重复事件。
柯尔特说，帮助个人获得自力更生是防止继续虐待的关键。“我们如何掩盖那个人，以便他们自己做出决定？”她说。“大多数情况下，当他们保持[虐待关系]时，这是因为他们看不到出路。他们认为自己没有资源来维持自己。”
“Once you get someone to safety, you really have to work on substance use and mental health,” added Tsusaki, who noted that many people experiencing abuse struggle with such issues. “They have to be addressed together and addressed separately,” she said.
The event was the first in an annual series established by Carla Diaz-Lewis and her husband, Kenneth Lewis. Its aim is to teach health care providers and community members how to identify and assist victims of domestic violence.
Mrs. Diaz-Lewis serves on the board of directors for Aid to Victims of Domestic Abuse, a nonprofit organization focused on family violence intervention and prevention, and Mr. Lewis is a member of the Cizik School of Nursing Advisory Council and UTHealth Houston Development Board. Creation of the lectureship was inspired by Mrs. Diaz-Lewis’ own experience as a survivor of domestic violence in her youth.
她说：“家庭暴力是一个主要的公共卫生问题。”“这会引起影响的连锁反应。幸存者可以陷入毒品和酒精成瘾，无家可归和犯罪行为；有持久的心理健康问题；或发现自己是人口贩运的受害者。它可以跨越所有文化，性别，社会经济水平和性取向。”
The problem has increased during the past couple of years, likely associated with pandemic-related stressors. It adds to the urgency of the couple’s gift, which they hope will lay the foundation for a future hub of domestic violence research and education at UTHealth Houston.
“We are extremely grateful for this generous gift, and we see this lecture series as a critical first step to meeting the needs of people impacted by domestic violence locally and across the nation,” said Dean Diane Santa Maria, DrPH, MSN, RN. “This lecture series will allow us to strengthen our connections to community providers, increase the knowledge of health care providers on best practices to assess and care for those affected by domestic violence, and conduct research on effective prevention and treatment strategies.”
