Abstract
This study describes a two-day interprofessional workshop in sexuality offered to undergraduate students in four programs—Medicine, Nursing, Physiotherapy and Occupational Therapy. The major objectives of the workshop were to increase students' awareness of their own sexual attitudes and values, to explore and acknowledge those of others, and to develop increased comfort in discussing topics pertaining to sexuality with clients. The use of pre and post-workshop questionnaires measuring sexual attitudes, sexual comfort levels and sexual knowledge demonstrated that an intensive workshop of this nature can facilitate statistically significant positive changes in all three areas, and that there are no significant inter-program differences before or after the workshop in any of the measured parameters. Thus, an inter-professional educational intervention as described, should pose no major program-specific curricular problems, while at the same time allowing students to benefit from the professional socialization facilitated by the combined format.
