Just ask: Promoting inclusive and holistic sexual health in primary care.

Abstract

While the full scope of sexual health treatment is unlikely to ever be exclusively provided in primary care, it is increasingly important that interdisciplinary teams are poised to address this issue more effectively and comprehensively than we currently are. Providers need to seek out training and resources as they work toward meeting recently articulated competencies in an effort to provide whole person care. And, in the meantime, open the door to conversations about holistic sexual health by simply asking patients about their experiences. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved).
