    Prep work to testify for Navy Medicine Sexual Assault Medical Forensic Examiners

    Lt. Stephany Daniell, staff nurse assigned to Naval Hospital
    Bremerton's Urgent Care Clinic and a Sexual Assault Medical Forensic Examiner (SAMFE), takes part in the initial SAMFE training and is grilled on her performance testifying at trial. Every provider in attendance for the week-long course was told that when a SAMFE does get called to testify, not only is their credibility at stake, but also that of the official evidence. There are several common sense steps to follow when testifying. They are, Be
    prepared. Review the medical records and all documentations and photos (if applicable); Be precise. Use terminology correctly. Sloppy wording can be
    problematic on a cross examination; Be concise. Only answer the question asked; and Be plain-spoken. Medical jargon gets lost in the dialogue (Official Navy photo by Douglas H Stutz, NHB Public Affairs).
