I wasn't familiar with the guidelines. THey appear to be a UK document. Can you share your evaluation of them?
I suspect the lack of response is due in part to this forum not being one used by nurses, doctors etc. unless they are engaged in research. Here is an option to consider: Amazon Mechanical Turk https://www.mturk.com/mturk/welcome It is pretty inexpensive to create a survey to help you get this type of information.
I was unable to download the link and I may not fully understand your question. However, the UK's NICE series of guidelines are generally highly respected, evidence based and trustworthy.
JOhan--It's a document called, "Domestic violence and abuse: how
health services, social care and the organisations they work with can respond effectively"
I'm from the U.S. and I wasn't familiar with these guidelines. I appreciate any perspective you have on them thanks.
