Hennepin Assault Response Team (HART) serves SANE-A, SANE-P and Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) cases. Upon completion, residents receive one college credit for this course. This activity has been submitted to the International Association of Forensic Nurses for approval to award contact hours. The International Association of Forensic Nurses is accredited as an approver of nurisng continuing professional development by the American Nurses Credentialing Center's Commission on Accreditation. On-call and case hours count towards eligibility for SANE certification.

Residency Format:

Participants stay in the Twin Cities area (Minneapolis and St. Paul, MN) for 5-10 calendar days. Participants will be on-call for the duration of their on-site time, with a respite period after a case. On-site days may be separated into 2 blocks, if needed (for example, 2 weekends of 3 days each).

When SANE preceptors receive a call to attend a case, the participant will be notified to meet the preceptor at the case location and work on the case alongside the preceptor.
Participants will work with multiple preceptors and may attend cases in multiple locations.
Due to the nature of sexual assault response work, the number of cases each participant will attend is unknown and may vary.
Participants will complete supplemental coursework before, during, and after the clinical experience including self-assessment, case reflection assignments, trauma-informed care readings, and case and clinical experience debriefing.
