Back by popular demand, the team from Victorian Institute of Forensic Medicine (VIFM) are offering a half-day forensic medicine workshop that offers delegates a rare opportunity to discuss and learn first- hand, how to manage forensic issues that arise in the course of their work. Through a combination of lectures, small group teaching, and a simulated moot court, the VIFM team will cover a broad range of forensically relevant scenarios in clinical practice. From responding to police requests, and examining patients involved in interpersonal violence, to injury documentation, evidence preservation, and report writing, the team will demystify the police and court processes and provide participants with a solid foundation of forensic medicine principles.
