About Jennifer

Associate Professor Jennifer Fraser, RN, PhD, is a full-time academic at the Susan Wakil School of Nursing and Midwifery in the Faculty of Medicine and Health at the University of Sydney. She has a clinical background in paediatric and child health nursing. Her research specializations include public health nursing, with a focus on the nurse-family relationship in home visiting programs for vulnerable families with newborns. Fraser has led randomized controlled trials demonstrating the effectiveness of nurse home visiting interventions in supporting family functioning, child development, and reducing risks of physical abuse. Her work also addresses child maltreatment, investigating factors influencing nurses' recognition, reporting, and self-efficacy in mandated reporting of suspected child abuse and neglect. She has developed and psychometrically evaluated tools such as the Reporting Suspected Child Abuse and Neglect (RSCAN) scale for registered nurses and hospital-based electronic checklists for clinical assessment of child maltreatment.
