Responding to Sexual Violence in Adults Course

Are you a healthcare worker working in Australia who cares for victims of sexual violence? If so, this course is for you.

Monash University’s Department of Forensic Medicine and consortia partner, the Victorian Institute of Forensic Medicine (VIFM), have developed a three-unit Course for health practitioners in Recognising and Responding to Sexual Violence which commenced in 2021 and will continue until 2027.

This training program is funded by the Commonwealth Department of Social Services under the National Plan to End Violence against Women and Children 2022-2032. The training will equip healthcare professionals to recognise and respond appropriately to adult disclosures of sexual violence.

Monash University is seeking expressions of interest from AHPRA registered and Australia-based practicing health practitioners providing primary health care services to undertake the RACGP and other medical college CPD-accredited training at no cost.
