Disability-Related Disparities in Screening for Intimate Partner Violence During the Perinatal Period: A Population-Based Study
Our findings demonstrate a need for health care providers to collaborate with policy makers, disability advocates, and researchers to reduce the disparities people with disabilities face in accessing health care, including screening for IPV during the perinatal period. Such efforts are essential for maximizing the health and safety of pregnant persons and new parents with disabilities and their children during the perinatal period.
