摘要

近年來性侵害犯罪屢次發生，社會大眾對性侵害之議題逐漸重視，使得政府對性侵害加害人訂定許多新的法律規範，即「加害者非經強制診療，不得假釋」，開始參與性侵害加害者之治療，也讓護理工作發展出新的領域與範疇。本文擬針對目前對性侵害加害人之立法現狀，對加害人之醫療處置模式，以及與精神衛生護理關係做一深入說明，並且探討在照護加害者上所面臨的倫理議題等。期望透過本文的介紹，能讓護理人員對於性侵害加害者有更多的瞭解，以及能夠培訓更多的護理人員從事對性侵害加害者的照護工作，朝向發展專科護理師的目標前進，以凸顯護理的重要性及專業性，並落實性侵害的三級預防工作，幫助更多的加害者和受害者。

Sexual assaults have increased enormously in recent years in Taiwan. As a result the government ha introduced many new regulations concerning sex offenders, particularly that sex offenders may not be conditionally released without receiving special psychiatric treatment. The consequent introduction of psychiatric care in prisons, established the provision of treatment for sex offenders, and led to the development of a new field. This article outlines the current legislation regarding sex offenders, the medical treatment of sex offenders, and the relationship of such treatment to mental health nursing, and explores the ethical issues involved in the care of sex offenders. We hope that, with the benifit of this introduction to the topic, nurses will better understand sex offenders and that some will become clinical nursing specialists in the field.
