What do the nurses do?
The nurses are there to help advise young people, allowing them to make educated, healthy choices.
A nurse has protected time to be available for drop-in consults with teenagers. The nurse triages the teenagers, provides initial screening and/or health education and acts as a facilitator to General Practitioners and other providers as needed.
Teen Clinic nurses are required to attend essential training on a range of topics such as sexual health, mental health, suicide prevention, LGBTI and community education.
