The Devon Interpersonal Trauma Response (ITR) Service for GPs
The ITR service provides emotional and practical support to:
- People who are concerned about their own behaviour in relationships
- Adults who have experienced domestic and/or sexual violence/abuse
- Children who have experienced domestic abuse
Support is provided by a named Interpersonal Trauma Practitioner linked to each surgery so that they can become embedded within your team. The practitioner will support identified patients as well as being able to provide expert support and consultation regarding MARAC referrals and other Domestic Abuse and Sexual Violence (DASV) related queries.
The linked practitioner will also train GP surgeries in a range of areas surrounding DASV, including how to manage respectful inquiries.
Further information for professionals is available at ITRS for Professionals – FearFree.
