Sexual Assault Centres provide multidisciplinary care for men and women who have experienced sexual crime. These centres enable provision of medical, forensic, psychological support and follow-up care, even if patients chose not to report the incident to the police service. Sexual Support Centres need to provide a ring-fenced, forensically clean environment. They need to be appropriately staffed and available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to allow prompt provision of medical and supportive care and collection of forensic evidence. Sexual Assault Centres work best within the context of a core agreed model of care, which includes defined multi-agency guidelines and care pathways, close links with forensic science and police services, and designated and sustainable funding arrangements. Additionally, Sexual Assault Centres also participate in patient, staff and community education and risk reduction. Furthermore, they contribute to the development, evaluation and implementation of national strategies on domestic, sexual and gender-based violence.
性侵犯中心为遭受性犯罪的男性和女性提供多学科护理。这些中心能够提供医疗、法医、心理支持和后续护理，即使患者选择不向警察部门报告事件。性支持中心需要提供一个受保护的、法医上干净的环境。它们需要配备适当的人员，并每天 24 小时、每周 7 天提供服务，以便及时提供医疗和支持性护理并收集法医证据。性侵犯中心在核心商定的护理模式的背景下运作效果最佳，其中包括明确的多机构准则和护理途径、与法医科学和警察部门的密切联系、以及指定和可持续的资金安排。此外，性侵犯中心还参与患者、工作人员和社区的教育和减少风险。此外，它们还为制定、评估和实施关于家庭暴力、性暴力和基于性别的暴力的国家战略做出贡献。
