How to understand and apply sexual health/education evidence
We all know we should be applying evidence into practice – but how exactly do we do that? This course provides easy to follow tips and techniques on how to find evidence, critical evaluation skills and putting evidence into practice. All sessions are practical and aimed at busy staff who want to include the latest evidence in their practice but aren’t always sure where to start. [This session works well with How to evaluate your sexual health services]
Behaviour Change 101
Much of our current sexual health activity is based on the idea that it will change behaviour. But how do we know what messages or forms of delivery have the best chance of doing this? Can we really hope to change behaviour, or is this just a pipe dream? What does the research say about trying to change behaviour patterns relating to sexual activity? This session introduces key concepts around behaviour change and takes a critical look at the concept in order to help you reflect on what you are trying to achieve within patient consultations.
How to talk about sex/relationships health with confidence
Practitioners often find talking about sexual health and relationships difficult. This could be due to embarrassment on the part of the patient or practitioner, time constraints, an uncertainty of what the patient’s problem is, or a lack of formal sex education on the part of the practitioner. This informal and sensitive training session creates a safe space for practitioners to reflect on particular areas they find difficult to discuss and to work together to find solutions to these problems. This session also includes a resource pack for practitioners to use with patients to improve the quality of the consultation.
How to evaluate your sexual health services
Are you asked to explain what you’ve achieved within your sexual health service? Do you need to justify activities such as patient flow or prescribing for funding bodies or other external organisations? Sex and relationships health is an area where evaluation can be complex and often practitioners are unsure how to show where they have made an impact. This session outlines a range of flexible and innovative methods you can use to assess small and larger scale impacts your work has had. [This session works well with How to understand and apply sexual health evidence]
You may also want to look at training for parents and parents to be to see if this is something you might like to offer within your practice, PCT or organisation.
