Forensic Nursing for Nursing Students is a student-centered textbook designed to introduce nursing learners to the practical interface between healthcare, law, and justice. The book explains the essential role of nurses in identifying medico-legal cases, providing emergency care, maintaining patient dignity, documenting findings objectively, preserving evidence, and communicating through proper institutional channels. Written in the Indian context, it incorporates the current criminal law framework, including the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, and Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, and also discusses relevant special laws. The chapters cover forensic nursing foundations, legal responsibilities, evidence handling, sexual assault care, domestic violence, child abuse, death investigation, toxicology, substance abuse, emerging trends, and SOPs for medico-legal cases. With learning objectives, key terms, tables, flowcharts, case scenarios, OSCE stations, and self-assessment questions, this book aims to prepare nursing students for safe, ethical, and legally aware clinical practice.
