This project aims to explore the critical role nurses play as the first point of contact for victims of violence. The primary goal is to conduct a comprehensive literature search to determine whether nurses are frequently involved in the disclosure process of violence victims. The project will investigate how nurses can effectively identify potential victims and what best practices they should follow to provide appropriate support. By refining the project scope, the team will delve into existing research to understand the strategies nurses use to recognize signs of violence and the subsequent steps they take to assist victims. This project will provide valuable insights into the current practices and suggest improvements to enhance the support system for violence victims within healthcare settings.

The project will culminate in a detailed report summarizing the findings from the literature search. This report will include an analysis of the frequency of nurse involvement in the disclosure process, identification methods, and recommended best practices for supporting violence victims. Additionally, the team will create a presentation highlighting key findings and suggested improvements for nurse training programs.
