Scenario 1
Sarah has come to the General Practice today for an appointment with you, the practice nurse. She has made the appointment for Adam?s four year old ?Healthy Kids Check? and his immunisation. From the practice notes you see that Sarah is 28 years old and is married to Paul, 32 years old. Sarah is Paul?s second wife and he has a daughter, aged 12, from his previous marriage. He does not see his daughter on a regular basis. Sarah, Paul and Adam have recently moved to the Gold Coast from Victoria as Paul took up an appointment as a teacher at a local Catholic primary school.
Before you start Adam?s assessment, you ask Sarah how she is feeling today. She starts crying. Paul was angry with her yesterday when dinner wasn?t on the table when he got home. He told her ?You?re a lousy wife and mother?. She tells you that she is afraid of Paul and she wants to leave him. She has nowhere else to go as all her family are interstate. She has a car however she has no money, as Paul does the shopping with her and only gives her money when she asks in front of other people. She doesn?t know where to go or what to do next.
