Forensic nursing science plays a crucial role in the care of victims and perpetrators of violence, yet many emergency departments lack trained forensic nurse examiners. Accurate evidence collection during trauma care is vital and requires skilled clinicians at the time of admission. Interpersonal violence accounts for a significant portion of forensic cases, including domestic abuse and unique crimes prevalent in Asia, such as dowry deaths and honor killings. Emergency nurses must broaden their understanding of forensic trauma beyond sexual assault to effectively identify and treat victims.
