Forensic Nursing Part 1: Emerging Global Speciality
Forensic nursing is an evolving speciality. In 1995, the American Nurses Association recognized forensic nursing as a speciality. Since then, this specialty has become recognized in several countries, including Canada. Forensic nurses play a pivotal role in today's health care system. From practicing as forensic nurse examiners, to forensic mental health nurses and nurse coroners, they continue to provide an increasingly important role in the areas of trauma, violence and crime.
