Essential information about patterns of victimisation among children with disabilities

Sherry Hamby et al. Evid Based Nurs. 2013 Apr.

Abstract

Implications for practice and research: Children with disabilities are at increased risk for virtually every type of violence that has been measured in this population. Healthcare providers and researchers need to take a more comprehensive, person-centered approach that focuses on the vulnerability to polyvictimisation and the interconnection among forms of violence for children with disabilities.
