Family Planning Victoria provides a secondary consultation service for families, carers and professionals to build their knowledge, skills and capacity to support and educate their client/family member in relation to their reproductive and sexual health, sexuality and relationships.
The secondary consultation service involves an FPV Educator working to support the referrer in relation to a specific client. The client is not present during the consultation. The aim of the consultation is to clarify pertinent issues and to provide advice and resources for the client’s ongoing support and management. Sessions usually are an hour long and you can book multiple consultations if required.
How much does it cost?
- $250.00 per hour gst free
