Experiencing gender-based violence (GBV) is associated with health conditions that are common indications for referral to exercise physiologists, physiotherapists and other allied health professionals (AHPs). The readiness of AHPs to identify and respond to GBV is currently unknown. This study aimed to determine the readiness of AHPs to respond to a person who had experienced GBV. Participants completed the modified Physician Readiness to Manage Intimate Partner Violence Survey (PREMIS) and/or an interview. The AHPs felt underprepared, had low perceived knowledge and lacked confidence to respond to and support people who have experienced GBV, despite recognition of the importance and agreement of the relevance to AHPs' practice.

运动生理学家、物理治疗师和其他专职医疗专业人员应对性别暴力的准备情况：一项混合方法研究。


遭受性别暴力 (GBV) 与健康状况有关，而健康状况是转诊给运动生理学家、物理治疗师和其他专职医疗专业人员 (AHP) 的常见指征。目前尚不清楚 AHP 是否准备好识别和应对 GBV。本研究旨在确定 AHP 是否准备好应对经历过 GBV 的人。参与者完成了修改后的“医生应对亲密伴侣暴力的准备情况调查”(PREMIS) 和/或访谈。尽管认识到与 AHP 实践相关的重要性并达成一致，但 AHP 仍感到准备不足，认知知识较少，并且缺乏回应和支持经历过 GBV 的人们的信心。
