Learning Objectives:
  1. Describe the role of the Medical Assistant (MA) in rooming alone to increase IPV identification
  2. Describe how to implement a rooming alone policy and IPV screening policy by engaging the Medical Assistants
Description:
We describe the practice and policy implementation of rooming patients alone in the ob/gyn department at Kaiser Redwood City in order to screen for Intimate Partner Violence (IPV). This required significant support and engagement from the Medical Assistant staff.
