Abstract

The use of telecare in preventing domestic and post-separation violence, while taking place, remains little recognized and widespread. Previous research shows that telecare, while not a panacea for the problem of violence, can help increase the sense of security in those who suffer from, or are exposed to, violence (post-separation violence). This text analyzes this research to uncover both the potential and weaknesses of telecare applied in the area of violence prevention and to identify conditions that enhance its effectiveness. In conclusion, the authors offered preliminary, framework recommendations on the conditions for developing a methodological framework for implementing a telecare model in this area of social work and social welfare. The development of such a model will require social research of an interdisciplinary nature, which will provide the data necessary for making analyses and proposing specific solutions in not only technological and organizational, but also methodological, educational and legal dimensions.
