Innovative/Promising Practice Program Report

Learning Objectives:

How and why the MOVE model of maternal child health nurse family violence screening and care was developed.
What MOVE elements all stakeholders valued during the study and what remained valued by nurses after two years.
What the primary (screening, safety planning and referral) and secondary outcomes (satisfaction with care, level of harm)at MOVE implementation end and primary outcomes two years after.

Description:
Sustaining levels of provider behaviour change following IPV training has been a consistent challenge. Using Normalisation Process Theory (May et al, 2009) we designed a supportive good practice model of maternal child health nurse care for abused women at individual, team, local and state government levels supplemented by nurse participatory action research. We conducted evaluation of government routine data, women’s responses, nurse and other stakeholder process and impact evaluation data to demonstrate how sustainability can be achieved and improved.
