7. Partnership Working
A significant change in the approach to sexual health care in North Yorkshire involves new partnership work with local GPs, with some of our services located within GP practices, health centres and young peoples services
This should improve access and reduce stigma
Partnership with Community Pharmacies North Yorkshire will support access to Emergency Hormonal Contraception, Chlamydia screening and condoms for young people.

8. We Aim to:
Increase GP’s and health care professionals’ awareness of sexual health issues within their local communities through collaborative working and regular Educational events and professional training
Develop a shared approach to providing services that meet the needs of their local community (we are looking to develop shared care pathways for LARC)

9. Use of technology Social Media and innovation
Website offering information to both SU and Professionals
The use of social media is increasing, embracing the latest digital engagement approaches
