Women Against Rape (WAR) presents a 30-minute video aimed at informing and equipping health professionals to meet the needs of rape survivors:

Highlights of a frank, lively dialogue among rape survivors, advocates from Black Women’s Rape Action Project and WAR, and health workers. Women of different races, backgrounds and disabilities recount compelling experiences of seeking health treatment for physical injuries and/or emotional trauma. They describe what they were looking for and the obstacles and prejudices they encountered. Nurses from a number of sexual health clinics respond with their experiences of treating rape survivors, and of tackling discrimination.

"I’ve just learnt so much from real experiences rather than professionals spouting out other people’s experiences." (senior nurse, Royal Free Hospital)
