  • Description:
    This session of Grand Rounds will explore Intimate Partner Violence (IPV), a serious, preventable public health problem that affects millions of Americans. The term 'intimate partner violence' describes physical, sexual, or psychological harm caused by a current or former partner or spouse. IPV can vary in frequency and severity. It occurs on a continuum, ranging from one episode to chronic, severe battering. IPV can have lasting harmful effects on individuals, families, and communities. The goal for public health is to recognize and prevent IPV.
