  • Title: Teen-friendly services. Advocates for successful teen contraception.
    Author: Parker BL.
    Journal: N J Med; 2000 Feb; 97(2):41-4. PubMed ID: 10697386.
    Abstract:
    Teenagers seeking contraceptive advice need teen-friendly services that are accessible, free or low-cost, confidential, and convenient. From the teen's perspective, the picture is quite simple: "I need help now, I don't want my parents to know about it, I have no money, and I'm not sure what to do." It is the responsibility of the clinical staff to walk new patients through the steps of becoming a successful health care consumer, keeping in mind that they have never acted independently in this area before.
