Check Yourself: How LHDs Can Use Self-Collected STI Tests
Are you interested in learning more about innovative ways for clients to complete STI testing outside of the clinic? Well, look no further! The National Coalition of STD Directors (NCSD) has partnered with LetsGetChecked, a leading virtual care company, to create the Check Yourself Program. Check Yourself is designed to provide health departments with a platform for their patients to complete STI tests without having to come to the clinic. This testing initiative supports health departments to offer options to their patients without having to create their own system and allows clients to feel empowered, as well as have access to the care that they need to live long and healthy lives. Join NACCHO on Thursday, July 14th at 2:00 PM EST for an action-packed webinar to learn about the initiative from NCSD and LetsGetChecked and hear from local health departments about how they are using the platform. Joining will be Dr. Shobita Rajagopalan, Senior Physician and STD Clinical Chief/Associate Medical Director at the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health, and Alicia Steines, a public health nurse at Linn County Public Health in Iowa, who will share their experiences using the platform.
