Evaluating Child Sexual Abuse
Education Manual for Medical Professionals
Description:... Children who have been sexually abused can be very challenging patients whose needs include emotional, psychological, social and legal support, in addition to medical examination and treatment. This text and video offer a learning experience for medical professionals working in child sexual abuse. The book is divided into four sections: decision points in the evaluation of child sexual abuse; the medical history for child sexual abuse; the medial examination for child sexual abuse; and medical-legal issues in child sexual abuse. Based on clinical cases, each section of the text sets out learner objectives, presents cases, asks specific study questions and then provides answers and discussion.
