How is forensic science connected to healthcare?
Forensic
scientists contribute to legal debates by applying scientific methods to the examination
of legal problems. Health care providers in this field include doctors,
dentists and toxicologists. In many cases, they serve as frontline workers at
the scene of a disaster or crime.
Forensic
nursing has changed how healthcare responds to specific patient populations,
particularly in the setting relating to relationship violence, child maltreatment,
elder care,
intentional and unintentional trauma investigation,
death investigation ,corrections and, of course ,public health setting.
From
determining if a person is at an increased risk of developing certain genetic
diseases and conditions, to understanding how the body metabolizes and reacts
to certain medications, laboratory technicians can take a small sample of human
tissue and discover extraordinary information that helps patients take charge
of their health now and in years to come.
