Description
The Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE) course provides interested nurses with the information and skills to properly care for victims of assault (both physical and sexual) by recognizing, collecting and preserving evidence, interviewing the patient, and linking them to vital community resources for follow-up. All nurses are invited. This course, taught by experts in the areas of forensic nursing, law enforcement and criminal prosecution, emphasizes victim advocacy and the overall importance of being a member of the interdisciplinary Sexual Assault Response Team (SART) in the investigative, health care and prosecution processes. The course is comprised of both didactic and clinical training. Participants will learn the theory, research base, and legal rationales for protocols used by SANEs. They will observe simulated forensic interviews and demonstrate both an evidence collection exam and expert witness testimony. All training is consistent with the standards of practice as defined by the International Association of Forensic Nurses (IAFN).
