Join Cleveland Clinics Main Campus where research and surgery are advanced, technology is leading-edge, patient care is world class and caregivers are family. Here, you will work alongside a passionate and dedicated team, receive endless support and appreciation, and build a rewarding career with one of the most respected healthcare organizations in the world.

The Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE) Program at Cleveland Clinic is staffed by specially trained nurses who care for individuals who have experienced or witnessed any type of violence, including sexual assault, child abuse, interpersonal violence, elder abuse or human trafficking. After living through these events, many patients need additional support and encouragement as they cope with the lingering effects of trauma.

Participate in an on-call schedule, as determined by SANE coordinator and respond to the designated facility within one hour.
Complete clinical experiences as determined by the SANE course and coordinator [e.g., Civilian observer with Cleveland Police or Cleveland Sex Crimes, Cleveland Rape Crisis Center, Domestic Violence/Child Advocacy Center, Bureau of Criminal Investigation, Family Justice Center (Cleveland), and Courtroom trial experience].
Perform speculum exams and/or pediatric assessments under the supervision of a LIP.
Utilize knowledge of anatomy/body structures, patterns of injury and collecting and managing of forensic evidence with a Sexual Assault Exam Collection (SAEC) kit and a Drug Facilitated Sexual Assault (DFSA) Kit.
Travel to other Cleveland Clinic Facilities as needed.
Attend continuing education as a Sexual Assault Nurse.
Provide clear and concise written documentation, photo documentation of injuries and/or evidence and court testimony as needed.
