SAFE Centers for Excellence
https://www.svfreenyc.org/get-help-2/
Sexual Assault Forensic Examiner (SAFE) services are considered the best and most victim-centered approach to acute health care for sexual-assault patients. SAFE Centers provide sexual-assault patients with:
-
Sensitive, victim-centered medical and forensic health care performed by a specially trained Sexual Assault Forensic Examiner (SAFE). A SAFE is a healthcare provider such as a doctor, nurse, physician’s assistant, or nurse practitioner.
-
Care that is timely, compassionate, and patient centered, in a designated and appropriately equipped private room.
-
Assurance about the quality of collection, documentation, preservation, and custody of physical evidence by utilizing a trained and New York State Department of Health–certified sexual assault forensic examiner to perform exams. These examiners are available to provide expert testimony if patients choose to report crimes to law enforcement.
-
Psycho-social and legal support by a specially trained rape-crisis advocate or counselor.
-
Reliable referrals to mental and physical health care and follow-up services.
