Abstract

ABSTRACT Many communities across the country are developing, implementing, or already operating programs that provide patients with access to sexual assault nurse examiner (SANE) expertise and care through telehealth technology (e.g., teleSANE or teleSAFE). The speed at which teleSANE programs are proliferating is outpacing the available research and evaluation to inform key decisions on program development and implementation. During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Massachusetts Department of Public Health SANE Program and its National TeleNursing Center decided to rapidly and temporarily convert a set of hospitals from providing in-person SANE care to remote teleSANE care. Several specific changes were made to this program's established teleSANE model for the rapid, temporary conversion. This article reports on findings from an evaluation of the temporary TeleSANE model that provide insight into key decisions that must be made in the development and implementation of teleSANE program features. Communities considering developing or already operating a teleSANE program should be intentional in making program goals, purposes, and values explicit as well as develop their program accordingly.

利用远程医疗技术为报告性侵犯的患者提供服务

摘要：全国各地的许多社区都在制定、实施或已经在实施一些项目，通过远程医疗技术（例如，远程SANE或远程SAFE）为患者提供性侵护士检查员（SANE）的专业知识和护理。远程SANE项目激增的速度超过了现有的研究和评估，为项目开发和实施的关键决策提供信息。在新冠肺炎疫情最严重的时候，马萨诸塞州公共卫生部SANE计划及其国家远程护理中心决定迅速暂时将一组医院从提供住院SANE护理转变为远程SANE护理。为了快速、临时的转换，对该项目已建立的teleSANE模型进行了一些具体的更改。本文报告了对临时TeleSANE模型的评估结果，该模型深入了解了在开发和实施TeleSANE程序功能时必须做出的关键决策。考虑开发或已经运营远程SANE项目的社区应有意明确项目目标、目的和价值观，并相应地开发其项目。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Forensic Nursing (JFN) the official journal of the International Association of Forensic Nurses, is a groundbreaking publication that addresses health care 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.
