The International Association of Forensic Nurses is one of the best means of support for SANE program managers and their staff. If you are not yet a member, I really encourage you to join. Access to the SANE listserv, On the Edge, the Journal of Forensic Nursing and other member benefits can provide additional resources for any program. And I couldn't be more happy about the commitment IAFN has made to online continuing education.

I'm teaching a SANE course this week in Peoria, IL (which, as it turns out. is harder to get to than Italy). In preparing for the week, I decided to catalog and upload all of my supplemental materials for easy access. So over at the forensic healthcare blog, you can now find a page that has all of these materials in one place. They're categorized and linked to either full text (where readily available), abstracts or websites.

Last week, in a comment on my post on the STI Clinical Guide, Kim mentioned the live courses taught by the CDC through the National Network of HIV/STD Prevention Training Centers. Aside from the 5-day course, there is also a 3-day course (which still includes clinical) available. You can check course availability and scheduling here.

So many of you have expressed frustration at trying to maintain clinical competency for you and your staff. With budget cuts and staffing constraints, traveling to conferences and courses can be a challenge. Providing our own clinical education is not only possible, though, it can be easy, low-tech and free. Over at the forensic healthcare blog today, you'll find a clinical guide I put together on STIs.

One of the things I do in my spare time (*snicker*) is maintain a forensic healthcare blog. Although it's not connected to any specific project, it has quite a bit of content related to maintaining sexual assault medical forensic exam clinical competency. Mind you, it's not only sexual assault content on that site; you'll find all apsects of clinical forensic healthcare, from program management to interpersonal violence to policy and research.
