Harmony: A Cluster Randomised Controlled Trial Of A Whole Of General Practice Intervention To Prevent And Reduce Domestic Violence Among Migrant And Refugee Communities

Abstract

Migrant and refugee victims of domestic violence (DV) are at grave risk of harm and murder and under-identified in primary care. The Harmony partnership builds on evidence-based models of DV response, to trial an innovative intervention of culturally competent and safe care in general practices with significant numbers of migrant patients. Harmony will result in data platforms that enhance assessment and care plans for DV victims, and safer outcomes for those from vulnerable populations.
