In frames of monitoring the “Law of Georgia on the Elimination of Domestic Violence / Violence Against Women, Protection and Assistance to the Victims” the survey-questionnaire of medical staff was conducted in three municipalities of Western Georgia - Kutaisi, Tskaltubo, Zugdidi. 100 beneficiaries of different profiles were interviewed.
Besides the survey, the in-depth interviews were held for two doctors in Poti and Terjola.
The purpose of the survey is to identify the shortcomings of the work of medical staff, as a referral subject, in the process of executing the law: how to increase the role of doctors in identifying the problem of violence and helping the victim.
