This webinar will establish a foundation for the forensic nursing practice starting with ancient records, moving through the Middle Ages, and into today, identifying the leaders and their contributions.
Building upon that foundation, we will see how the forensic nursing movement developed scopes and standards of practice, entry qualifications, accredited educational curricula and certifications, capable of addressing the needs of all patients intersecting with legal systems.
Today, Forensic Nurses influence standards of practice on a global scale through consensus documents, research, and professional practice, reaching wide-ranging areas such as: the military; domestic, child, and elder abuse; human trafficking; sexual assault; and legal and death investigation.
Detailed Learning Objectives:
1. Discuss the history of the integrated model of forensic nursing, which promotes interdisciplinary and interprofessional collaboration in primary, secondary and tertiary prevention environments
2. Analyze the advanced forensic nursing competencies within the Forensic Nurse Scope and Standards of Practice, Nursing Ethics with Interpretive Statements, and best practice guidelines
3. Outline the future opportunities in advanced forensic nursing as organizations mature and LACE Model of Licensure, Accreditation, Certification, and Education helps reach consensus for practice in the USA
