    Domestic & family violence | Episode 3

    If one of your LGBTI+ patients were experiencing domestic & family violence, would you know how to pick it up? Would you know what to do to support them? 1 in 3 LGBTI+ people experiences violence from a partner, ex-partner, or family member. Unfortunately, the research shows that LGBTI people are less likely to find support services that meet their specific needs. Dr Rhys chats with Ben Bjarnesen, an LGBTI+ Domestic Violence advocate, about domestic & family violence affecting the LGBTI+ community. In this episode we'll answer these questions: - What is domestic and family violence and what types of abuse are unique to the LGBTI+ community? - What challenges may LGBTI+ people face in seeking support? - How can healthcare professionals recognise when someone may be experiencing domestic and family violence? - What can healthcare professionals do if someone asks for help or support?

    Talking about sex | Episode 2

    Do you talk to your LGBTI+ patients about sex? When you take a sexual history, is it gender-inclusive? Many medical schools teach students to ask the question, “Do you have sex with men, women, or both?” during a sexual history. We look at how that might not be the best place to start... Dr Rhys chats with Clinton Morgan, clinic nurse at the Queensland Council for LGBTI+ Health, about how to take a better sexual history. In this episode, we'll answer these questions: - Why should we take a sexual history from our LGBTI+ patients? - How do you invite people to talk about sex? - How do you ask for details like sexuality & types of sex in an inclusive way? - What about toys?
