Biography

Rose E. Constantino, PhD, JD, RN, FAAN, FACFE, is an Associate Professor and Fulbright Scholar at the University of Pittsburgh School of Nursing, Department of Health and Community Systems. She teaches Forensic Nursing based on the content of a book she co-edited “Forensic Nursing: Evidence-based Principles and Practice published by F. A. Davis in 2013. Her pro bono family law practice representing vulnerable clients in court is founded on her research on the consequences of Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) on the physical and mental health and social justice, safety and well-being of women, men and children worldwide. Her current research is in evaluating the effectiveness of Online and Mobile delivery of health interventions to survivors of IPV as a disruptive innovation: Health, Education, and Legal Promotion plus Physical Activity (HELP+AP) in building healthy relationships and preventing or repeating IPV. She is the 2016 recipient of the ANA Jessie M. Scott Award for excellence in integrating nursing research, practice and education, a 2016-2017 STTI Mentor for the Gerontological Nursing Leadership Academy and a 2016 Fulbright Scholar. She will be receiving a Balik Scientist Program award from the Philippine government in Fall of 2017.

Research Interest

Health outcomes of women and girls who experience intimate partner violence (IPV) and women whose spouse committed suicide. Her past research studies have shown that there is a difference in the psychological, physical, and behavioral health outcomes between women in IPV who receive intervention and women who do not receive intervention. Furthermore, in a randomized study, we compared the effects of a HELPP (Health, Education on safety and social support and Legal Participant Preferred) intervention delivered online and a HELPP intervention delivered face-to-face and found that HELPP intervention delivered online is more feasible and effective than HELPP delivered face-to-face in women in IPV. Therefore, we are exploring to harness mobile health such as text messaging intervention and HELPP Zone app as ways of delivering intervention globally to women and girls in IPV.
