Most SANE programs use a pool of SANEs who are on call 24 hours a day. The on-call SANE is paged whenever a sexual assault victim enters the community's response system9 and usually responds within 30 to 60 minutes.

DUMC is THIS FAR off the standard mark?!!!

I have read where a patient can and has waited up to six to eight hours for a SANE to arrive. I have read that from articles printed by SANE nurses. No one could say that DUMC was neglient when a patient is treated by three doctors and assisted by four nurses in a five hour time period. IF a Government publication states 30 to 60 minutes, you can be sure its at least triple that. The rape kits I have seen performed were done by a Physician and an RN assist.
Pediatrics ends at 18 in most instances.
Anyway Joan, as the prosecutor said to the turkey in the witness box, "So, as you and Farmer Jones wrestled for control of the axe........" The funniest joke ever.
