Asking the client if she has been slapped,kicked,punched,or physically hurt by her partner,if she is afraid of her partner,or if she has been forced to perform sexual acts are questions that should be posed to all clients.If any physical injuries are present,then they should be marked on a form that indicates their locations on the body.Implying that a client did something wrong can be very emotionally damaging.Many victims of violence are not aware that they are in an abusive relationship.They may not respond to questions about abuse.Using general descriptive words such as "slap," "kick," or "punch" to elicit information is best.
