ANS: B
Forensic nurses fill a gap where the health care system interacts with the legal system by meeting the needs of victims and perpetrators of violent crimes through enhanced quality of care and preventive services. Observation, documentation, preservation, and notification are critical for determining the legal outcomes of cases that involve violence. Although it is true that the legal system is supported, that is not the focus of care in these cases. The remaining options are not responsibilities unique to the forensic nurse.
