The analysis examines the findings both by types of activities as well as by the response to the woman abuse problem by sector (nursing, medicine, hospitals, public health, community health, occupational health, multicultural health, and First Nations health). The paper also makes recommendations for actions to improve the health care sector response to woman abuse, and includes details of national, provincial/territorial, and local initiatives being undertaken to address the problem.
