Post-assault treatment of sexual assault victims

Post-Assault Treatment for Sexual Assault Victims is a type of help that survivors of sexual assault can get after their attack. It can include things like medical care, counseling, legal help, and other forms of support. Medical care can help a survivor address their physical health needs, like treating any injuries, testing for and treating any sexually transmitted infections, and providing medication like the morning-after pill. Counseling can help with any emotional issues, like anxiety, depression, or post-traumatic stress disorder. Legal help can be important in addressing the criminal aspect of the crime, such as pressing charges or getting a restraining order. Lastly, there are other forms of support, like an advocate (someone who will provide support to the victim throughout the process) or hotlines that can help with the recovery process.
