Access to Core Sexual Health Services

 

Core Sexual Health Services are those services that are provided by Trusts, which are consultant led and can be nurse delivered, as part of an integrated Genitourinary Medicine (GUM) and Sexual and Reproductive Health Service.

The Integrated sexual health service will provide enhanced sexual health and reproductive services, including management, treatment and partner notification for Sexually Transmitted Infections and specialist contraceptive services that include choice within products to maximise client acceptability e.g. condoms, and a range of oral contraceptives and Long Acting Reversible Contraceptives.
