Summary

This study tests whether a special training program can improve nurses' ability to recognize signs of child abuse and neglect. About 120 nurses working in children's clinics will be randomly assigned to receive the training or not. Researchers will then measure their awareness using a detailed questionnaire. The goal is to see if education can help nurses better identify at-risk children.
