We provide acute and delayed medical forensic exams at our location by specially trained Sexual Assault Nurse Examiners (SANE).
Victims of sexual assault
From mosaicgeorgia.org/forensic-medical-care ↗Mosaic Georgia's forensic medical care services include both acute and delayed forensic medical exams for all victims of sexual assault. The exams are conducted by on-staff, specially trained Sexual Assault Nurse Examiners (SANE). In an effort to provide a safe environment, exams are conducted at Mosaic Georgia's facility. Patients can expect to receive excellent medical care where they are in control.
When you're ready to visit us for a sexual assault medical exam, here's what you can expect: Consultation: A nurse examiner will walk you through the exam process, explaining the importance of each step and the type of questions you'll be asked. Examination: A thorough physical examination will be conducted, noting any signs of injury and collecting DNA evidence, if present. Support: Prophylactic treatments for sexually transmitted infections and emergency contraception are available.
Exam Options for Adults (18+): Report to Law Enforcement: Evidence is collected, documented, and handed over to law enforcement for further investigation. Non-Report Forensic Exam: Evidence is collected and securely stored at Mosaic Georgia for up to one year without being tested, unless you decide to report the assault later. In both scenarios, an advocate will be present to support you, discuss your options, and offer resources. Our priority is your comfort and control throughout the process.
Georgia has a tracking system for Sexual Assault Kits (SAK), providing a tracking number that allows you to anonymously check the status of your kit. For assistance or more information, feel free to contact us.
