The SAFEvT Prescriber module is designed to provide you with an overview of trauma-informed, patient centered care of the sexual assault survivor. It is not intended to be a comprehensive course, nor can it replace good clinical judgement. The information contained in this module is kept as current as possible. If questions arise, please refer to the most current CDC guidelines or reach out to SAFEvT@health.mo.gov

Always follow your institutions policies and procedures when providing care.

We recommend viewing the course "No SANE in Sight" offered by the International Association of Forensic Nurses before beginning the course module. You can find this course here: https://www.forensicnurses.org/page/NoSANEInSight/

In the Panopto Video section located in the menu on the left of this page, you will find a pelvic exam video. This video helps to demonstrate some of the differences in positioning and supporting a patient through a speculum exam following a sexual assault.

Thank you for your dedication to providing trauma-informed care to Missouri survivors.
