1 Organization Johns Hopkins Hospital Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics Solution Title Improving Intimate Partner Violence Screening and Referrals Project Description Routine intimate partner violence (IPV) screening in healthcare settings is a common policy recommendation (Dagher, Garza, & Kozhimannil, 2014). The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) recommends IPV screening for women of all ages (Moats, Edwards, & Files, 2014). Healthcare providers have the unique opportunity to reduce and prevent IPV through patient screening and referrals. Research has shown that healthcare provider screening and intervention for IPV can benefit patients (Leibschutz & Rothman, 2012). Furthermore, routine screening of all women assures that patients are screened regardless of whether abuse is suspected (Moats et al., 2014). Yet few providers routinely screen unless there are obvious injuries (Alotaby, Alkandari, Alshamali, Kamel, & El Shazly, 2013). To reduce the prevalence and negative impact of IPV, it is critical to screen all women presenting for healthcare and to make appropriate referrals. A validated instrument should be consistently employed during the history-taking portion of the exam for the targeted audience to assess for IPV (Dagher et al., 2014). Equally important is for healthcare providers to know how to respond to a positive screening in a caring appropriate manner that includes timely safety planning and referrals (Sutherland, Fontenot, & Fantasia, 2014). Once abuse is confirmed through screening, the patient s safety must be assessed, available resources provided, and appropriate referrals completed according to the patient s wishes (Dagher et al., 2014). Women with positive IPV screens should be provided referrals to local and national resources to meet their safety desires and needs.
2 This study seeks to answer the question if education and utilization of a validated IPV screening tool adapted for use in the Electronic Medical Record (EMR) will improve provider knowledge and practices regarding IPV screening and referral as well as increase the number of patients seeking assistance from resources provided? The goals of this initiative are as follows: 1. To develop an IPV screening tool for an electronic medical record (EMR). A validated IPV screening tool will be adapted for use in the EMR. 2. To improve provider knowledge and practices regarding IPV screening and referral. We will measure provider knowledge and screening practices at baseline and after an educational training session. 3. To monitor the numbers of patients who call our newly created clinic resource line. We will measure the number of times that patients call our resource line. Process In alignment with recommendations from the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the outpatient Gynecology and Obstetric (GYN/OB) clinics of Johns Hopkins Hospital (JHH) will facilitate improved IPV screening of all women presenting for care through the implementation of a validated IPV tool in the EMR. No single IPV screening tool has been well established as the standard or top IPV screening tool; however, five tools have been studied most commonly (Rabin, Jennings, Campbell, and Bair-Merritt, 2009). After review of the five commonly studied IPV screening tools, it was determined that the Abuse Assessment Screen (AAS) was established and best suited for use in a GYN/OB clinic. The AAS is a five item clinic administered tool developed by the American Medical Association (AMA) in 1992 used to assess frequency and perpetrator of physical, sexual, and emotional abuse by anyone. It may be used in abused pregnant and non-pregnant multicultural
3 women in health and prenatal clinics. The sensitivity and specificity of the AAS is 93% and 55%, respectively. Any question answered affirmatively, i.e. yes, constitutes a positive screen (Centers for Disease Control, 2007). A pre- and post-test provider survey was identified to assess provider readiness for IPV screening. Permission for use of the survey was obtained. Data on provider type (i.e. physician, social worker, advance practice provider, nurse), demographics, years of training, and clinic location was also collected. The questionnaire, The Domestic Violence Health Care Provider Survey Scale (DVHCPSS), uses a 5-point Likert scale to assess providers training needs for IPV screening (Maiuro, Vitaliano, Sugg, Thompson, Rivara, & Thompson, 2000). Solution After obtaining permission from the AMA, the AAS was submitted to the electronic charting system Epic for integration into the patient s history for use by healthcare providers in the GYN/OB clinics. This screen should take less than five minutes to complete. Any positive answer in the AAS screen opens a screen in Epic that lists the pertinent next-steps for the provider, which includes a list of referral resources. The IPV screen released into the Epic EMR of the GYN/OB clinics at JHH in October of Prior to introduction of the AAS into Epic, providers including physicians, advance practice nurses, social workers, and nurses, were surveyed using the DVHCPSS. After the initial survey, providers were educated regarding IPV screening, utilization of the AAS in Epic, and provided with an appropriate response to positive screens. Establishing an effective response to a positive screen is a critical portion of the care for patients who are experiencing IPV. There must be a consistent approach for reliable referral and follow-up in place (Moats et al., 2014). It is not desirable to provide the patient with any materials/brochures that have the word violence written on it. In our experience, patients may not
4 want to accept such documents out of fear of their partner discovering the materials. For these reasons, an automated telephone number has been set up for patients to call at any time, and included on the clinic business card. This dedicated line lists the telephone numbers to local and national resources. Clinic business cards are given to all patients and told that the second number on the card is the IPV resource line. When called, this line provides patients with local and national resources for their safety and care. This recorded line is available in both English and Spanish at any time. A positive AAS screen instructs the provider to give the patient the business card if the patient does not desire to report the situation immediately. Before discharge from the clinic, the provider gives the patient a current clinic business card with the resource number on the card. If the patient desires to report the situation immediately, the positive AAS screen instructs the provider to have the patient call 911 and to provide the patient with social work follow up. Measurable Outcomes The DVHCPSS consists of six domains arising out of 41 questions: perceived selfefficacy, system support items, blame victim items, professional role resistance/fear of offending the patient, victim/provider safety, and frequency of domestic violence inquiry. The scale is scored from 1 to 5 with 1 representing the minimum score and 5 representing the maximum score. Three stands as the neutral middle score. Only in the domain of blame the victim is a lower score desirable (Maiuro et al., 2000). Results of initial survey: Domain Average response rate Result Perceived self-efficacy System support items
5 Blame victim items Professional role resistance/fear of offending the patient Victim/provider safety Frequency of Domestic Violence Inquiry Three months after provider education and implementation of the AAS, providers will be resurveyed regarding their IPV screening practices. Pre- and post-test survey scores are expected to reveal an improvement in provider knowledge and increase in screening practices. The Epic charts will be reviewed for utilization of the AAS and the resource line will be assessed for incoming calls. Sustainability It is generally accepted that IPV screening will likely increase identification of IPV but assessment of referrals for positive screens is weak (Taft, O Doherty, Hegarty, Ramsay, Davidson, & Feder, 2013). It is therefore unclear if screening actually improves effective referrals (O Doherty, Taft, Hegarty, Ramsay, Davidson, & Feder, 2014). This project not only strives to improve IPV screening in the local population but also to improve referrals. The project will be shared across the JHH community and made available for use not only by the GYN/OB department but also by all departments. The AAS will be easily available to anyone in the system through EPIC. Any of these providers will be directed to give their patients the resource line number. Ultimately, this will stand to provide a blueprint for IPV screening and referral across this community and others. Role of Collaboration and Leadership In 2010, the World Health Organization (WHO) defined interprofessional collaborative practice as multiple healthcare workers from different professional backgrounds working
6 together with patients, families, caregivers, and communities to provide quality healthcare (WHO, 2010). Also in 2010, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) released their publication The Future of Nursing: Leading Change and Advancing Health. This document challenged nursing to collaborate with physicians and other health care professionals to redesign healthcare in the United States (IOM, 2010). Research has demonstrated that interprofessional collaboration results in increased coordination of care and more effective communication. By allowing team members to function as a unit, the cumulative skills and experience of the group results in overall improvement in quality and safety of patient care (Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, 2011). As healthcare evolves, collaboration among healthcare providers and healthcare researchers becomes increasingly important (Naylor, 2011). Charged by leadership with the task of increasing nurse involvement in research at Johns Hopkins Hospital, a small departmental nursing research committee considered the importance of interprofessional collaboration. The nurse led committee elected to open the committee up to all professional disciplines in the department. The response included nurses, advance practice providers, social workers, physicians, lactation consultants, and financial advisors. The remarkable committee outcomes are producing practice-changing projects throughout the hospital that are improving the quality of patient care and overall patient safety. This committee identified IPV screening as a need for women in our care and set out to improve screening and referrals. The resulting project evolved through the support of departmental leadership, the hard work of all committee members, and the persistence of the notion that the world around us can be better for those women who are charged to our care. Without interprofessional collaboration,
7 these results could not be achieved. This research group is a model for collaborative interprofessional care. Innovation IPV screening is not a new recommendation. Offering healthcare providers a reliable consistent option for IPV screening and referral through the electronic medical record however is an innovative utilization of the newest and most effective technology available to meet that recommendation. Not only are providers easily able to access and use a validated screening tool, referral resources are immediately provided. Women in our care can be screened and safely referred for help. Healthcare providers can comfortably achieve the recommendation to screen all women while providing the resources those women need. Related Tools and Resources ABUSE ASSESSMENT SCREEN 1.
