When a health care provider reports abuse should the accuser be able to know the identity of his or her accuser?
All health care workers are mandatory reporters. This means that by law they have to report any case they have suspicion as might be abuse. They do not have to prove the abuse exists, just suspect that it does. When the healthcare worker reports a case of abuse, their name and info is taken by the investigating office, but it does not have to be shared with the accused. Once the healthcare provider reports the suspected abuse, it is the investigating office, not the healthcare worker that decides whether abuse occurred or not, and it is the investigating office that files the charges. In the US it is true that you have the right to face your accuser, but in cases of abuse it is the investigating office that is the accuser, and not the healthcare worker. So, you have a right to face the investigating office, and they will have a representative at the court. The healthcare worker, since they are not filing the charges does not have to be there. Now having said that, the healthcare worker will most likely be present at the trial, but as a witness and not as an accuser.

Is verbal abuse a valid reason to stop my child for his court ordered visitation?
While verbal abuse certainly is not in the best interest of the child, you can't take it upon yourself to go against the orders of the court by refusing the other parent visitation. Doing so would place you in violation of the court, for which you could be charged with "contempt of court". This would certainly be of no help to you, or your child. You need to call your attorney to advise you on how to handle this. But, be prepared to give proof of the verbal abuse, since verbal abuse can be subjective to opinion by the court. Each time you learn of an incident of the verbal abuse, document the date, what was said to the child, and in what context. This will make your case much more credible, should you have to go back to court.
