WISH Sexual Health Outreach Nurses work with people who are unable to access sexual health clinics.
We are a team of sexual health outreach nurses. The sexual health nurses can see anyone in Worcestershire who struggles to access mainstream sexual health or clinics.
We support vulnerable people to access sexual health care. We offer one-to-one support, information and guidance regarding relationships, contraception, sexually transmitted infections and safer sex.
We see people at: school, community hubs, homeless foyers, residential units and at people’s home.
