Care, compassion, and creativity: Trans survivors and forensic exams

Forensic exams are difficult for anyone.  Trans survivors face additional social, legal, and medical barriers to pursuing justice.  This workshop will explore how forensic nurse examiners and advocates can support trans survivors pursue evidence collection, minimizing barriers and increasing both physical and emotional comfort.

Objectives

• Identify at least one place in the pediatric and adult protocol that supports providers in sensitively providing care to trans survivors
• Name three ways to lower barriers to trans survivors seeking forensic exams
• List two resources for additional support and guidance in working with transgender survivors
