“…Los profesionales en el ámbito psicosocial que atienden a Niños, Niñas y Adolescentes y a sus familias perciben que su labor no es plenamente valorada. Según Lindert et al (2020), esta percepción impacta negativamente en su sensación de realización personal y en la eficacia de sus intervenciones, una observación que encuentra respaldo en los hallazgos actuales. De manera similar, otros estudios como el de Gatuguta et al (2021) sugieren que la calidad de las intervenciones tiende a disminuir.…”

La intervención del maltrato y abuso sexual a niños, niñas y adolescentes -NNA- ha estado enfocada principalmente en las víctimas y victimarios. Pocos estudios abordan el papel del profesional psicosocial en la atención a esta problemática. El objetivo de esta investigación fue conocer las experiencias sobre la atención psicosocial del maltrato y abuso sexual de NNA de los profesionales del área social en la ciudad de Medellín. La metodología implementada fue cualitativa, y como estrategia de recolección de datos se utilizó la entrevista a profundidad con profesionales con amplia experiencia en intervenciones en este ámbito. Los resultados evidenciaron precarias condiciones laborales, salarios bajos, alta carga laboral, falta de apoyo al apoyo, y una constante rotación en los puestos de trabajo, tanto en entidades públicas como privadas. Se encontró, también, que trabajar con estas problemáticas afecta la salud mental de los profesionales, generando alteraciones emocionales que desembocan en síndrome de burnout, con incidencia en la calidad de las intervenciones. Se concluye la necesidad de que las instituciones no solo garanticen condiciones dignas de trabajo, sino también acciones de “apoyo al apoyo”, en tanto esto aumenta la capacidad del personal para hacer frente a la atención y encontrar sentido a su función.

“…In particular, specialized health services dedicated to the victims of violence and to the minors who witness violence are crucial parts of a public health strategy aimed at contrasting the social/legal/economic implications of abuse and its longterm health outcomes (11). Indeed, this issue is often misrecognized and underaddressed by non-specialized healthcare professionals, leading to a failure to implement early professional-driven interventions for secondary prevention (e.g., counselling, cognitive behavioral therapy) and to report the crime(s) to the competent public authorities (7,8,10,(31)(32)(33)(34)(35)(36). Indeed, the professionals operating in healthcare often do not have a clear idea of what should be considered reportable and they tend to avoid to report the exposure of children to interparental violence because of the fear of a further victimization of the abused parent (10).…”

et al. 2022

BackgroundThere currently is no evidence that COVID-19 has had an impact on the rates of psychological abuses occurring when a minor witnesses interpersonal violence.AimOur aim was to describe the accesses of the last four years to the Emergency Department of a tertiary hospital (Careggi University Hospital—Florence, Italy) due to this issue and then to evaluate whether the COVID-19 has had an impact on this trend.MethodsWe collected data regarding cases of abuse in which at least a minor had reportedly witnessed the event. Medical records stored between January 1, 2018 to January 1, 2022 were analyzed, extracting sex, age and nationality of the victim; sex of the perpetrator and relationship with the victim; known previous episodes of abuse in the medical history of the victim; setting of the abuse (domestic vs. non-domestic); type of abuse (physical, psychological, sexual); whether the perpetrator was under the influence of alcohol/drugs; whether the victim was hospitalized; prognosis of the victim; number, relation with the victim and involvement in the abuse (as co-victim) of the minor(s) who witnessed the abuse.ResultsA total of 167 eligible cases were registered. 69% of victims had previous episodes of abuse. The perpetrators were all known and mainly males (96%).The abuses were mainly domestic (79%). In 74% of the cases only a type of violence was perpetrated. In 12% of the cases, the minors were also victims of physical abuse. No statistically significant relationships were found between the start of the COVID-19 pandemic and the changes in the number of cases of domestic abuse (p = 0.07), physical abuse (p = 0.62), psychological abuse (p = 0.83) or sexual abuse (p = 0.88). However, during the institutional lockdown in Italy (March-May 2022) only two cases occurred – a number that did not allow period-specific statistical inference.ConclusionsEmpowering the hospital policies specifically aimed at identifying and protecting the victims of violence/witnessed violence remains a critical goal from both a public health and medico-legal point of view.
