Health Materials for Patients, Providers, and Advocates
The National Health Resource Center’s materials are best used in conjunction with a warm referral, also referred to in the CUES intervention. A warm referral is a supported referral to domestic violence/sexual assault (DV/SA) advocacy services from a health provider, in which the provider is able to offer a patient access to an onsite DV/SA advocate; offer use of the clinic’s phone to call a local resource; or offer the name and phone number so they can reach out independently, etc. Complement a warm referral with a brochure or safety card from a local DV/SA agency, if it is safe for the patient to take home. Ideally, the provider has an established relationship with the DV/SA advocacy program and is familiar with the staff and services available, thus increasing the likelihood of the patient following through with the connection.
