Sexual Health in Rochester/Monroe County Sexually Transmitted Infections Are a Shared Problem with Shared Solutions
In conjunction with Triliium Health, this report summarizes evidence for our community to develop a comprehensive framework to promote sexual health and prevent and treat sexually transmitted infections (STIs). The fundamentals of this framework include having health care providers routinely take a sexual history, improving convenience and capacity of STI screening, enhancing education for prevention and treatment, and developing a view of sex and sexuality that is more affirming and less stigmatizing for the patient.
