Getting specialist medical help after sexual assault
It’s normal to feel anxious about seeking medical help after you have experienced any type of sexual violence (sexual assault, sexual harm or rape). We hope that reading this booklet will help you to understand why seeing a medical service can be a good thing, even if the assault happened a long time ago, and whether or not you want to involve the police. A specialist sexual assault medical service (called SAATS – Sexual Assault Assessment and Treatment Service) can make sure you are okay and help deal with any concerns you may have about your health.
