Manual for Medical Examination of Sexual Assault

Author

  • ... CEHAT

Abstract

This manual aims to equip health care workers with an appropriate understanding of sexual violence and the needs and rights of survivors of sexual violence, and to highlight the dual responsibilities-both medical and forensic-health care workers have toward survivors. Reducing health risks faced by women and ensuring respect for the dignity and autonomy of each woman is central to the realization of the right to health. This manual provides critical support for these endeavors and is thus a welcome contribution to the promotion of women's health and the right to health in India.
