Doctorate Title: Paramedics and Children Exposed to Domestic Violence.
Doctorate Description: This thesis examined the role and experiences of paramedics in Queensland when they encounter children exposed to domestic violence. These children, who may also be at risk of other types of abuse and neglect, often require support and sometimes protection. Paramedics are frequently the first healthcare professionals who respond to victims of domestic violence, including the children in the family. This multi-disciplinary study examined law, policy and social science, and conducted a survey exploring the role and experiences of paramedics, and identified ways to improve policy and practice, and respond better to children who are exposed to domestic violence.
