YWCA OKC | (405) 948-1770
At Palomar, we are proud to partner with the YWCA to provide SANE and DVNE exams to victims when needed during regular business hours. SANEs and DVNEs are nurses with specialized education in providing forensic care for patients who have experienced sexual assault or abuse. They are skilled in taking patient histories, assessing and treating trauma response and injury, collecting and managing evidence, providing the emotional and social support needed during a post-trauma evaluation and examination, documenting injury, and providing testimony required to compel such cases through the legal system. Please call the YWCA if you are in need of this service. It’s completely free.

Strangulation
Strangulation is a very serious and potentially lethal form of abuse. People might not be aware that internal injuries have occurred and may ignore symptoms directly caused by being strangled. It is important to note that symptoms might not be present initially. If you have experienced strangulation, see this information.
- In Oklahoma City, 68% of victims on-scene of domestics reported being strangled (OCPD, LAP 2015).
- If your partner has strangled you in the past, your risk of being killed is 750x higher.
- Strangulation is one of the most lethal forms of partner violence, as unconsciousness may occur within seconds and death within minutes (Strangulation Institute, 2016).
- If you’ve been strangled, please seek immediate medical attention at your local hospital.
