Human trafficking is a major public health problem, both domestically and internationally. Healthcare providers are often the only professionals to interact with trafficking victims who are still in captivity. Recent studies have demonstrated that up to 50% of trafficking victims in the United States were seen by healthcare professionals while in captivity and were not identified. This course will help guide healthcare professionals to identify human trafficking victims when they present in the clinical setting. Providers will learn how to appropriately assess victims and clearly know when and how to report cases to the National Human Trafficking Hotline.
This course meets continuing education requirements for the Florida Boards of Medicine, Osteopathic Medicine, Podiatry and Dentistry Florida Councils of Physician Assistants and Dietetics and Nutrition.
