P170 Assess the risk behaviours and safer sex practices among male attendees in a sexual health setting

Abstract

Results 92 feedback forms were returned (20 [22%] from the hub and 72 [78%] from four spokes). 4 (5%) males: 86 (96%) females, median age 30 years (range 16-64). Knowledge of services offered improved from median 4/10 (range 1-10/10) to median 10/10 (range 1-10/10) after reading the leaflet. 33/66 (50%) patients not originally attending for an STI screen would consider or agree to screening after reading the leaflet (36/82 [44%] for HIV testing respectively). The leaflet received an overall rating of median 10/10 (range 5-10/10). Discussion/conclusion Overall the leaflet was well received and improved patient's knowledge of services offered, and uptake of STI/HIV testing. Females provided the majority of feedback most likely due to spokes previously providing primarily contraceptive services. More work needs to be done to encourage males to attend the spoke clinics.
