Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE)


Book Description

The purpose of the Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE) Program Development and Operation Guide (Guide) is to provide a model for nurses and communities interested in starting a SANE program; and for communities with existing SANE programs, the Guide is a resource for expanding or improving services provided by the SANE program. In the original SANE Development and Operation Guide, much of the research looked at whether registered nurses could perform sexual assault medical forensic examinations. Twenty years later, using nursing theory and SANE practice research, this revision and enhancement of the Guide demonstrates that nurses should be the ones to provide this care. --
