The 30-Second Message: What Patients Need To Know

Description The 30-Second Patient Message course will increase the knowledge and confidence of patient care teams to address sexual health with patients in a clinical setting. In this course, we will review common side effects that impact sexual function and the sexual response cycle, and learners will develop their own 30-second patient message that all patients should hear about cancer and sexual health. The 30-Second Patient Message normalizes the conversation, enabling care teams to set patient expectations without disrupting the clinic’s flow. Additionally, the course will highlight Provider communication aids and patient educational materials to assist in navigating challenges with intimacy during and after cancer treatment.
