Celebrating the Nurse in Forensic Nursing
November 9 - 13, 2009
While many people think the solution to violence occurs in police stations, courtrooms and prisons, there is a dedicated group of nurses who understand “Violence is a Health Care Problem”. During the week of November 9-13, 2009 the International Association of Forensic Nurses (IAFN) will celebrate Forensic Nurses Week. Forensic Nurses are on the front line making sure victims of rape, child abuse and domestic violence receive compassionate care, while vital forensic evidence is collected and preserved.
