Does UHS always inform the police if a patient has been raped or sexually assaulted?
If the patient is under the age of 16 years, we need to follow the National Child Protection Guidelines for the child’s safety.
If the patient is over the age of 16 years, the police would only be involved if the patient had given permission.
