Getting Medical Attention

If you have been recently assaulted, you may want to seek medical attention.

If you have been recently sexually assaulted (in the past 96 Hours) you can go to Sheldon Chumir Medical Centre and see the Calgary Sexual Assault Response Team (CSART). CSART is a team of Doctors, Nurses, and Advocates. This team can look after any medical concerns that you may have and, if you choose, do a sexual assault kit and collect any forensic evidence in the case that you decide to report to the police. To access CSART go to the Sheldon-Chumir Health Centre and tell the intake nurse that you have been sexually assaulted. If you have any questions about CSART, please call 403.237.5888.
