Description
Summary:In one year over six hundred victims of rape were seen by Chaplains in the context of a crisis intervention program at the University of Chicago's emergency rooms. The program of care for rape victims and the associated responsibilities of chaplains is described. A case verbatim is presented and analyzed. The focus for counseling is first, the patient's need for management of the psychological/social/legal issues raised by the family and the police, and secondly, on the patient's need for recall and reflection of the trauma of rape.
