What are the efforts made to stop violence against women by people they know?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Ask for help!: Domestic violence is unfortunately very common. It is important to ask for help from your doctor or nurse. Often in a hospital or office, the nurse will ask all family and friends to step out. This is the time to ask for help. If no one is with you sometimes a doctor will admit you to the hospital under a fake name for protection so no one knows where you are. Have a plan before you leave.
