This engaging forum empowers non-Indigenous GPs and healthcare professionals with the essential knowledge to deliver culturally safe sexual health care to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander patients. With a strong focus on boosting STI and BBV screening, testing, and management, as well as the 715 Aboriginal Health Check, the forum brings learning to life through real-life case studies, interactive Q&A polls, patient lived experiences, and practical NSW-specific resources. By the end of the session, GPs will feel better equipped with the skills and confidence to provide compassionate, effective care and make a positive impact on the sexual health and wellbeing of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.
