The Blue Card is the name of the procedure for counteracting domestic violence. If, in the course of official or professional activities, there is a suspicion of violence against persons experiencing domestic violence or as a result of a report made by a witness of domestic violence, the „Blue Card” procedure is initiated by completing the „Blue Card” form.
Intervention in the community does not require the consent of the person experiencing domestic violence or the person using domestic violence.
The „Blue Cards” procedure ends when domestic violence ceases and there is a justified assumption that further domestic violence has ceased or when it is decided that taking action is not justified. After the procedure is completed, monitoring activities are carried out for a period of 9 months, which consist in particular in analyzing and assessing the situation of persons subject to the „Blue Cards” procedure.
