OhioHealth has recently upgraded its forensic technology in order to better aid assault survivors in Marion County. The new technology, known as the “Sexual Assault Evidence Collection Kit,” will allow healthcare providers to collect DNA evidence more efficiently and accurately. This upgrade comes as part of a larger effort by OhioHealth to improve services for survivors of sexual assault.
The new collection kit includes a number of advances, such as a prepackaged, sterile kit with specific instructions for evidence collection. This will help to streamline the evidence collection process and ensure that all necessary evidence is collected in a timely manner. Additionally, the kit includes improved documentation tools to help healthcare providers accurately record information about the assault.
By upgrading their forensic technology, OhioHealth hopes to provide better care and support for survivors of sexual assault. The new kit will help to ensure that evidence is collected properly and can be used effectively in legal proceedings. This is especially important in cases where there may be limited physical evidence, as DNA evidence can be crucial in identifying perpetrators and obtaining justice for survivors.
OhioHealth’s commitment to providing high-quality care for survivors of sexual assault is commendable. This upgrade in forensic technology demonstrates their dedication to improving services for survivors and helping them navigate the difficult process of reporting and seeking justice for their assaults. By investing in advanced technology and resources, OhioHealth is taking an important step towards better supporting survivors of sexual assault in Marion County and beyond.
