Episode 2.3 Sexual Health for Adults with Intellectual or Developmental Disabilities with Dr. Brooke Faught
We believe that every person has the right to exercise choices regarding sexual expression and social relationships.
In this episode, we're speaking with Brooke Faught, Clinical Director of The Women's Institute for Sexual Health - WISH, and board certified women's health nurse practitioner with specialty training in female sexual and pelvic floor medicine, urology, and vulvoscopy.
Listen along as we discuss the importance of helping families—and healthcare providers—to have healthy conversations about sex and sexuality with patients who have intellectual or developmental disabilities (IDD).
