AB 1. A sexual assault nurse clinician or examiner is a registered nurse
who has been specially trained to provide comprehensive care to sexual
assault survivors. She usually is certified by her local institution
after completing a training program of approximately 40 hours.
Demonstrated competence in conducting a comprehensive evidential
examination also is required. 2. All forensic examinations of the sexual
assault survivor in the emergency department should include treatment
and documentation of injuries, treatment and evaluation of sexually
transmitted diseases, pregnancy risk evaluation and prevention, crisis
intervention and arrangements for follow-up counseling, and collection
of medicolegal evidence while maintaining the proper chain of evidence.
3. The role of the nurse examiner involves providing comprehensive care
for the survivor and working cooperatively with other individuals in the
legal system.
