Project Title: NVIFN-Rural Forensic Care
Project Description:
The Nevada Institute of Forensic Nursing’s mission is to provide trauma-informed, evidence-based, competent forensic nursing care to victims of violent or sexual assault across rural Nevada. We are dedicated to providing advocacy to all patients, with a focus on children, without bias or discrimination. Every patient under our care has continued holistic support as we work together through their journey from victim to survivor.NVIFN offers all-encompassing sexual assault services for every age, but focuses most of our care on children. NVIFN provides lifelong victim advocacy to each of our patients. NVIFN works alongside our law enforcement and social service partners to provide forensic interviewing and care of victims. NVIFN is dedicated to preventing wasted time trying to coordinate the specific needs of every victim by providing these needs in one place. NVIFN provides a united team that works together to transform victims into survivors with dignity, privacy, and respect that may not be found at the hospital, law enforcement offices, or other advocacy centers. NVIFN does not only see patients in our fully functional soft exam room or “office”. NVIFN is currently 100% mobile by providing travel care to victims wherever they are, 24 hours a day, seven days a week with our RV mobile unit. This specifically help children in our care if they are unable or terrified to enter a soft interview room, hospital, advocacy center, or any other facility.
