The Young Person’s Contraceptive Nurse provides dedicated support to hard to reach young people who wish to access mainstream contraceptive and sexual health services.
The YPCN identifies those YP who are at high-risk of pregnancy and provides support and education with regards to contraception and sexual health within outreach settings, including children’s homes/schools/colleges, with a particular focus on at-risk groups who may not access mainstream services.
Our Young Person's Contraceptive Nurse is Christine Etherington based at Chester Lodge (Sunderland Royal Hospital). To arrange to speak to Christine please call 0191 5699966.
