Written by an award-winning investigative journalist, Forensic Nursing takes an objective yet engaging book at a profession that according to the author "is only for those with a strong stomach, a pure heart, and a quick mind". It presents the personal experiences and perspectives of forensic nurses that work in all areas of forensic and critical care/emergency practice. The book explores the many medico-legal issues that a forensic nurse will encounter during the course of a career. It details the pertinent medico-legal skill sets that every forensic nurse should acquire. It describes how to effectively yet sensitively approach situations involving sexual assault and interpersonal violence. The book also illustrates how to conduct a successful medico-legal death investigation. Also of particular interest is information on legal nurse consulting an nursing jurisprudence.
