Žuštovič, Darja (author), Zaviršek, Darja (mentor)

V magistrskem delu je predstavljena vloga zdravstvenega osebja pri prepoznavanju in obravnavi nasilja nad ženskami v družini. Teoretični del obsega opredelitev nasilja, teorije o vzrokih nasilja v družini ter dinamiki in posledicah nasilja nad ženskami v družini. Magistrska naloga se osredotoča predvsem na vlogo zdravstva pri prepoznavi in obravnavi nasilja nad ženskami v podeželskem okolju, saj je raziskav o tej temi razmeroma malo. Predstavljene so pristojnosti in dolžnosti zdravstvene stroke na področju preprečevanja nasilja v družini in oris formalnega okvira obravnave žrtev nasilja v zdravstvenih ustanovah. Teoretični del se sklene z razpravo o vplivu ukrepov za zajezitev epidemije na nasilje nad ženskami v družini. Epidemiološke razmere so v zadnjih letih namreč močno spremenile življenje in medčloveške odnose povsod po svetu. V raziskavo, ki je kvalitativna, je vključenih sedem zdravstvenih delavk in zdravstveni delavec, ki so predstavniki različnih zdravstvenih poklicev na primarni ravni zdravstvenega varstva. Raziskava je bila izvedena v Zdravstvenem domu Ilirska Bistrica in Zdravstvenem domu Tolmin, ki se nahajata v občinah, ki sta po podatkih Statističnega urada Republike Slovenije po prostorski tipologiji uvrščeni v prevladujoči podeželski regiji (SURS, 2015). Namen raziskave je bil ugotoviti, kakšen je odnos zdravstvenega osebja do nasilja nad ženskami v družini v ruralnem okolju; kakšne so izkušnje zdravstvenega osebja pri delu z žrtvami in s povzročitelji nasilja ter kako osebno doživljajo to izkušnjo; kako zdravstveno osebje pridobiva znanja in spretnosti za prepoznavanje in obravnavo žensk, ki so žrtve nasilja in kakšno je njihovo mnenje o izobraževanju v zdravstvu o nasilju nad ženskami. Izsledki raziskave kažejo, da je zdravstveno osebje pred zahtevno nalogo, saj se v delovni praksi še vedno srečuje z različnimi ovirami, ki pripomorejo k sorazmerno slabemu prepoznavanju žrtev nasilja in njihovi obravnavi. Glavne ovire, ki izstopajo, so pomanjkanje izkušenj, znanja in spretnosti.

• Title: The Role of Healthcare Professionals in Identifying and Managing Cases of Domestic Violence against Women

Abstract

This master thesis aims at discussing the role of healthcare professionals in identifying and managing cases of domestic violence against women. The theoretical part of the thesis focuses on the concept of violence and on various theories related to the causes as well as to the consequences of domestic violence against women. The discussion draws attention to the importance of healthcare professionals’ role when it comes to identifying and managing cases of domestic violence in rural areas. The formal context of appropriate approaches to domestic violence that healthcare professionals are obliged to respect is presented as well. Their major rights, remits and obligations are taken into consideration, too. Since the restrictions to reduce the spread of Covid-19 have had a major impact on today’s society, the thesis also discusses the restrictions’ impact on the incidence of violence against women. This qualitative research relies on information obtained from collecting and analyzing non-numeral data. The survey is based on contributions of seven healthcare professionals that have some experience with various health care jobs. They work in two primary health centers in Ilirska Bistrica and Tolmin. These two primary health centers are both located in two rural Slovenian geographic areas (SURS, 2015). This research consequently aims at discussing the perception of domestic violence against women in rural areas – it discusses healthcare professionals’ gained work experience, their knowledge and learning opportunities as well as their personal views on the analyzed problem. The master thesis points that healthcare professionals often lack experience, knowledge and efficient tools when it comes to facing and identifying cases of domestic violence.
