ABOUT US
American Forensic Nurses is
an organization providing medical forensic services to law enforcement
agencies. Its president, Faye Battiste Otto, RN, SANE,
a co-founder of the International Association of Forensic Nurses, is involved in the development
of forensic services, procedures and education. Since its inception in 1983, the company has conducted over 4,000 forensic
examinations of victims of sexual assault and domestic violence on behalf of federal, state and local law enforcement
agencies.
As a licensed California Continuing Education Provider, the company has sponsored
educational programs leading to the qualification of over 1500 Registered Nurses as Certified Sexual Assault Examiners.
These programs have involved a broad spectrum of forensic procedures, including those techniques required in DNA
evidence collection.
American Forensic Nurses has created two websites. AMRN.com is designed to facilitate
structured educational courses in the field of forensic sciences, in many instances leading to practitioner certification
in various specialized areas of that academic discipline. These courses have been constructed by a faculty
internationally recognized in the field of forensics that is interactively involved in the instructional phase
of each course.
Its second website, Forensictrak.com, is designed to assist both novice and experienced forensic professionals in sharing their knowledge with forensic colleagues, and accessing forensic resource materials directly, or through associated site links. The forensic resources offered on the web site have been carefully selected to meet the informational needs of current and prospective practitioners in a wide spectrum of forensic science disciplines, and is continuously updated to insure the availability of timely informational materials.
