Hospital Based Violence Intervention
Culturally competent case managers provide 24/7 response
to victims of violence at St. Francis Medical Center and
Harbor UCLA Medical Center during a teachable moment in
the hospital setting. In the months following a
patient’s release, they engage, assess, and link
individuals to services such as education, counseling,
employment, and victim services. Protocols for these
services are being developed to expand the model to
other hospitals.
