The Journal of Forensic Nursing (JFN), the official journal of the International Association of Forensic Nurses (IAFN), is a groundbreaking publication that addresses health care issues that transcend health and legal systems by articulating nursing?s response to violence and trauma. The journal features empirical studies, review and theoretical articles, methodological and concept papers, and case reports that address the provision of nursing care to victims and perpetrators of violence, trauma, and abuse. The journal's objective is to publish scholarly manuscripts and to expand empirical evidence important to the practice of forensic nursing worldwide. Topics representing the diversity of the specialty are of interest and include, but are not limited to, interpersonal violence (sexual assault, abuse, intimate partner violence); death investigation; legal and ethical issues; forensic mental health; issues unique to corrections, and emergency and trauma nursing. Submissions from nursing and related disciplines are encouraged.
