A victim has the right to:

1. (1) speak with a victim advocate or victim service provider during any hospital visit for the purpose of receiving a sexual assault examination; and

2. (2) speak with a victim advocate or victim service provider during the course of the investigation.

   If a victim advocate or victim service provider is not available, a victim has the right to speak with victims assistance or a social worker. A victim retains these rights even if the victim has waived one (1) or more of these rights in a previous examination or interview.
