Sexual Abuse in Children

Journal Title: International Journal of Practical Nursing - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 3

Abstract

Sexual abuse is one of the most devastating types of child maltreatment, and estimates indicate that it has increased significantly during the past decade. As with all forms of child maltreatment, no universal definition of sexual abuse exists. There are various risk factors which lead to sexual abuse in children. The management of sexual abuse includes Traumafocused cognitive behavioural therapy (TFCBT) and Eye movement Densensitization and Reprocessing.
