Description

Following on from the clinical review "Caring for sex workers", we spoke to the team at Open Doors, a sex worker outreach clinic in east London, run from the Homerton University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.

Kim Leveret and Anca Doczi join us to give practical advice on reaching out to sex workers, what barriers exist to them accessing care, and how to take a sex worker sexual history.

Listen to the author of the clinical review, Michael Rekart, talk about the infectious disease side of sex worker health in our accompanying podcast:
