Management of crime victims in a forensic unit].

The medico-legal process is often upsetting for victims of crime. Following a sexual assault, the medical and gynaecological examination can be a source of anxiety. The reception and management of the victims is personalised thanks to the work of the multi-disciplinary team. After the medico-legal examination, the victims are directed, depending on their needs, towards a medical, social or psychological follow-up.
