Help your patients head back to school
The Academy has several items available to help members talk with their adolescent patients.
The Stand Up and Speak Out to Teens speaker's kit includes speeches about alcohol abuse, tobacco, STDs and mental health, plus two slide shows about preventing STDs and alcohol abuse. The price is $50 for members and $75 for nonmembers. To order, call the AAFP order department at (800) 944-0000 and ask for item #R047.
Members can get a free speech about alcohol abuse for presenting to teens by using AAFP Express (see box above). This speech emphasizes the dangers of alcohol abuse and the importance of getting help for alcohol-related problems.
A new brochure series from the AAFP about common health problems is geared specifically for teens. You can get a free set of 30 brochures about STDs, alcohol and stress by calling Barb Decker or Helen Worthley at (800) 274-2237, Ext. 4234.
