Can a single wellness visit change teen health habits?

NCT ID NCT05306938

Summary

This study tested whether linking schools with clinics for a special 'Adolescent Wellness Visit' could encourage more teens to get HIV testing and use contraception. About 1,500 students in their final year of primary school participated, with half receiving the wellness visit and half serving as a comparison group. Researchers followed the students for two years to see if the clinic visit led to lasting changes in their health-seeking behavior.
