Right to Review process does not provide enough protections for the client/victim in situations of domestic violence/family abuse cases. If there is a substantiated case for mental abuse/physical abuse related to family violence and police are involved, it can only delay the Notification letter to the Alleged Perpetrator. If the client/victim refuses APS services then APS involves stops. In many instances, clients/victims do not want to press charges against the alleged perpetrator at which point police would end their investigation. APS would need to send their Notification letter to the Alleged Perpetrator for Right to Review process which may cause more distress and conflict within the family system which potentially puts the client/victim at greater risk. Considerations should be made regarding this abuse type.
