Yes, you can combine Public Health Nursing with Forensic Nursing.
You can take the Public Health Nursing program alone. One topic covered includes legal issues about abuse. Another topic includes abuse within the prison population.
You can take the Forensic Nursing program alone. An example of a topic in this program is Mann’s health and human rights triad. Another example is global health and human services.
