Should Australian high schools provide confidential pregnancy and STD tests for students?
A school in New York has started the new semester by providing students with confidential pregnancy, STD tests and counselling services. But the decision has not been accepted by everyone and some parents have been concerned about not being able to be informed of their children’s decisions. Here in Australia the concept is new and University of South Australia’s Dr Helen Calabretto has a passion for nurses being available for students in schools around Australia. She talks to Friday Breakfast presenter Tom Changarathil about a similar system working in Australia.
