The new edition of this textbook provides uniquely comprehensive and nursing-focused coverage of family violence from an international perspective. Family violence is a global health crisis that impacts millions of people worldwide. As the world's largest and most trusted health profession, nurses play a unique and critical role in preventing, identifying, and mitigating family violence.
This textbook provides foundational knowledge on all aspects of family violence, presented in four main sections: What is Family Violence?; Family Violence and Nursing Practice; Family Violence across the Lifespan; Diverse Populations at Risk.
This resource is specific (but not exclusive) to nursing practice and outlines the importance of nurses in the prevention of family violence across the life course. It offers both practicing nurses and students a clear view of the essential theories, interventions, and issues surrounding nursing's role in addressing family violence - presenting an approach that empowers nurses to contribute to the prevention of this global health problem. Specific emphasis is placed on the co-production of research and practice improvements with survivors of family violence and the importance of multidisciplinary collaboration.
This new edition has a global perspective, with editors and family violence experts contributing from a range of countries and clinical settings like maternity, public and community health, forensic and paediatric nursing.
This easy-to-comprehend, yet detailed, overview of how nursing practice can reduce family violence and its associated health and social harms takes an intersectional and life course approach: from nursing care of the pregnant woman to the identification and management of elder abuse. An in-depth attention is brought to diverse populations at risk, including historically marginalized populations, sexual and gender minority communities, rural and remote populations, First Nations/Indigenous communities, people with disabilities, and migrant and refugee communities.

Jessica Williams (PhD, MPH, PHNA-BC, FAAN) is an Associate Professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, School of Nursing. She is a board-certified advanced public health nurse with clinical training in both hospital and community settings. Her research focuses on improving the role of the healthcare system in addressing syndemic health outcomes (e.g., chronic pain, HIV, opioid misuse) of interpersonal and gender-based violence and is facilitated through the application of community engagement methodology and dissemination and implementation science. Her research demonstrates how trauma impacts patient-provider communication and access to effective health services. This work highlights the unique difficulties survivors face managing chronic health conditions and how internal resources affect these challenges both positively and negatively. Her most recent research focuses on understanding the contribution of interpersonal violence to chronic pain opioid misuse and factors that promote resiliency among survivors. Dr. Williams teaches courses in qualitative research methodology and evidence-based practice. She also provides training for health providers focused on screening and responding to interpersonal and gender-based violence within healthcare settings based on current evidence-based practice guidelines. She earned her PhD in 2008 from Johns Hopkins University School of Nursing.
