Statement of Need

In this CMEO BriefCase participants will meet Isaiah, a 24-year-old African American man who presents to his primary care provider with concerns that he may have contracted a sexually transmitted infection (STI). During the encounter, Dr. Kelley uncovers behaviors related to substance use that may increase Isaiah’s risk for contracting HIV. The case of Isaiah will serve as a springboard for an overview of best practices for discussing a patient’s sexual and substance use history, as well as introducing HIV prevention strategies that can lead to initiation of PrEP.
