Journal of Forensic Nursing

The official journal of the International Association of Forensic Nurses is a groundbreaking publication that addresses healthcare issues that transcend health and legal systems by articulating nursing’s response to violence.

The journal features empirical studies, review and theoretical articles, methodological and concept papers, and case reports that address the provision of care to victims and perpetrators of violence, trauma, and abuse. Topics include interpersonal violence (sexual assault, abuse, intimate partner violence); death investigation; legal and ethical issues; forensic mental health nursing; correctional nursing; and emergency and trauma nursing.
