Experience
Current Management of Domestic Violence - Responding to IPV represents a landmark event in online medical education. This sophisticated, multimedia program has been shown in a randomized controlled trial to improve important education outcomes for up to 12 months. This program has proven consistently popular with practicing physicians and has also been used to educate medical students.

In 2006, Current Management of Domestic Violence - Responding to IPV was selected by the Blue Shield of California Foundation to help educate California's physicians about partner violence and California's domestic violence reporting law. Read about this initiative.

MDI has also published a handbook for health professionals, Respond to Intimate Partner Violence: 10 Action Steps You Can Take to Help Your Patients and Your Practice, which is based on material from the online program. This 96-page handbook can be ordered directly from Medical Directions.
