The National Academy of Sciences was established in 1863 by an Act of Congress, signed by President Lincoln, as a private, nongovernmental institution to advise the nation on issues related to science and technology. Members are elected by their peers for outstanding contributions to research. Dr. Marcia McNutt is president. The National Academy of Engineering was established in 1964 under the charter of the National Academy of Sciences to bring the practices of engineering to advising the nation. Members are elected by their peers for extraordinary contributions to engineering. Dr. John L. Anderson is president.

Consensus Study Reports published by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine document the evidence-based consensus on the study’s statement of task by an authoring committee of experts. Reports typically include findings, conclusions, and recommendations based on information gathered by the committee and the committee’s deliberations. Each report has been subjected to a rigorous and independent peer-review process, and it represents the position of the National Academies on the statement of task. Proceedings published by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine chronicle the presentations and discussions at a workshop, symposium, or other event convened by the National Academies. The statements and opinions contained in proceedings are those of the participants and are not endorsed by other participants, the planning committee, or the National Academies. Rapid Expert Consultations published by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine are authored by subject-matter experts on narrowly focused topics that can be supported by a body of evidence. The discussions contained in rapid expert consultations are considered those of the authors and do not contain policy recommendations.

Preface Intimate partner violence (IPV) is deeply troubling and complex. A comprehensive approach that focuses both on providing a broad range of services and on ultimately eliminating IPV would extend far beyond the health care delivery system. Moreover, the committee recognized that even in steady state conditions our current health care system does not equitably deliver essential healthcare services. While the committee desired to address a broader scope of how to eliminate IPV and improve our overall health care system, the committee operated within the scope of our statement of task and with the body of research available. This committee’s task and this consensus report focuses specifically on the essential health care services for IPV, first during steady state conditions, then in the context of public health emergencies (PHEs). The committee members brought diverse thought and multidisciplinary expertise to the statement of work put forth by HRSA. It became apparent early in our committee discussions and public sessions that IPV care pro- viders and those responsible for planning and carrying out PHE response can benefit from learning more about each other’s respective fields. Thus, our report includes both basic information about IPV and PHE response to facilitate future cooperation in PHE preparation, planning, and response. Through hard work, deliberation, and careful review of the evidence, the committee achieved consensus on the 11 recommendations highlighted in this report. The recommendations are pragmatic, actionable, and address key gaps in responding to IPV during public health emergencies that were identified over the course of this study. xxi PREPUBLICATION COPY—Uncorrected Proofs

xxii PREFACE Given the complexities of both IPV and public health emergencies, there are multiple sectors involved in the response (clinicians, disaster responders, emergency planners, etc.). Due to the various ways these response systems are structured across municipalities, the committee did not name specific local and state organizations who might lead the efforts in standing up the essential services during PHEs. The committee dedicated time and deep consideration to recommendations that call out specific national entities, ensuring that those entities were the most appropriate to take charge in those specific recommendations. I am convinced that implementation of these recommendations will be transformative for providing healthcare services to those experiencing IPV in steady-state and public health emer- gency conditions.

A National Academies committee was tasked with identifying essential health care services for women related to intimate partner violence (IPV) during steady state conditions, determining whether the essential health care services related to IPV differ during public health emergencies (PHEs), and identifying strategies to sustain access to those essential health care services during PHEs. This report, Essential Health Care Services Addressing Intimate Partner Violence, presents findings from research and deliberations and lays out recommendations for leaders of health care systems, federal agencies, health care providers, emergency planners, and those involved in IPV research.
