Abstract

The role of physicians in the identification of child abuse is essential. The changes introduced by the Act of March 2007 created new procedures that practitioners must be aware of and be able to implement. Thus, in addition to reporting to judicial authorities, the law establishes the concept of "information that is cause for concern" and its evaluation by the CRIP (Departmental Unit for Gathering and Evaluating Reports Citing Concern). The relative isolation of independent physicians in these situations adds to their difficulties. Comprehensive knowledge of available tools should help them in their practice.
