Lisa Nguyen is an RN, critical care nurse, and SANE nurse working with survivors of IPV, DV, as well as sexual assault. She walks us through what a day in her life as a SANE nurse looks like, what to expect if you get a sexual assault forensic examination performed, and what her advice to survivors seeking healthcare in the ED is.
Happy Forensic Nurses' Week - November 9-13, 2020 and Forensic Nurses' Day - November 13, 2020, to all the amazing forensic nurses out there! You are all so appreciated! Thank you for what you do.
