Session information
- Title:
- 01_02 Sexual History
- Description:
- This session will examine the ways in which a sexual history can be different from a general medical history. It will discuss some of the issues from the patient/client’s perspective and highlight some of the barriers to effective communication in this setting. The essential components of a sexual history will be outlined along with the reasons behind why we need to enquire about sexual practices/behaviour. Finally, this session will explore issues of assessing risk, look at terminology and language which may or may not be appropriate and explore documenting a sexual history.
