Medical Response to Adult Sexual Assault is an outstanding text that mimics an encyclopedia as it covers a wide range of pertinent issues that include historical, medical, SANE, and legal perspectives. The book provides hard-to-find information about topics such as conducting a sexual assault examination, providing courtroom testimony, and identifying the complexities associated with crimes against vulnerable individuals, such as the elderly and incarcerated. The seasoned contributors bring the content alive with their experience, anecdotes, and superb writing. This text is most worthy of some precious space on your bookshelf. Carol Anne Marchetti, PhD, RNCS, SANE Southeast Regional Coordinator MA Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner Program Boston, Massachusetts Medical Response to Adult Sexual Assault offers a comprehensive, holistic, and collaborative approach to adult sexual assault, and is an invaluable resource to any professional who may provide care to this population. This book provides the content and framework to expand and improve the quality of an interdisciplinary assessment and treatment of adult sexual assault. This resource also provides a broader scope of the specific dynamics of the adult sexual assault response in settings such as the military and college campuses, and informs the reader with greater understanding of the male sexual assault victim, elder sexual abuse, and human trafficking. Having all the relevant content in one textbook like this is an effective and informative tool for professionals in health care as well as other important disciplines serving these victims. Philip V. Scribano, DO, MSCE Associate Professor of Pediatrics College of Medicine Ohio State University Columbus, Ohio In Medical Response to Adult Sexual Assault, Dr. Ledray leads the way for medical and allied health professionals to improve the medical care given to this population. According to the Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network, in 2007 there were 243 300 victims of adult sexual assault in the United States. This population has specific unmet needs, some of which can be met with the emergence into practice of the content knowledge from Dr. Ledray's book. This text is comprehensive in scope, covering the history of specialization care, categorizations of victims of adult sexual assault with common threads for identification and treatment, and includes a chapter on evidence collection, preservation, and identification that will strongly support the legal machinations that must occur. This text should become a necessary and well-worn resource to medical professionals working with adult sexual assault victims. Karyn E. Holt, CNM, PhD Associate Clinical Professor Drexel University Philadelphia, Pennsylvania The authors of Medical Response to Adult Sexual Assault provide an invaluable resource for the professionals who collaborate to provide services to victims of sexual assault.
