Understanding Pediatric Medical Forensic Exams (with Karin Wickwire)
Today, hosts Karen and Kalen welcome Karin Wickwire, President of the International Association of Forensic Nurses (IAFN) and an experienced forensic nursing clinical coordinator. We dive into pediatric medical forensic exams and the most sensitive, misunderstood, and critically important aspects of pediatric care in suspected abuse cases. Karin Wickwire brings her wealth of experience as a forensic nurse since 2012 and as a nurse practitioner for the Erie Care Clinic, a satellite of the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center Children's Hospital Advocacy Clinic. This important conversation delves into the nuances of pediatric forensic exams, multidisciplinary approaches, and the challenges forensic nurses face when working with children who are survivors of abuse.
