The Madrid hospital held its seventh meeting of committees addressing violence. Healthcare, forensic and social-care specialists took part. The hospital reported observing more situations involving suspected drug-facilitated crime.
Coordinated support
Sessions included psychotherapy, forensic organisation and child protection. The hospital’s figure of 70 cases concerns gender-based violence detected in 2023, not exclusively spiking.
The organisation behind the meeting
SERMAS organisational documents date the creation of these committees to June 2006. Their remit includes identifying training needs, supporting protocols and coordinating referrals. A plenary body also reviews an annual work programme and report, placing the event within an established hospital structure rather than an isolated training session.
