      <guid>http://www.parisjc.edu/index.php/site/forensic-nursing-seminar/#When:{edit_entry_date format="%H:%i:%sZ"}</guid>
      <description>This course is designed to heighten the awareness of the RN role in responding to the bio&#45;social care of all patients including those that are victims or suspects of violent crimes. It will not make the nurse a forensic nurse, but hopefully, impress upon them their duty to seek further education in the field to enable them to give comprehensive care to all patients with respect to the patient’s forensic needs, to include the responsibility of testifying in court on behalf of our patients. It is approved for four nursing CNEs by the Texas Nursing Association.

Fee: $33 (4 Hours)
