It is also meant for decision-makers (medical officers of health, associate medical officers of health, and program managers) responsible for program policies and resource allocations. It may also be of interest to other providers who work in the sexual health field. The focus of this document is on case management of persons diagnosed with sexually transmitted infections and their sexual contacts. Issues related to modes of testing (for example anonymous and point of care testing for HIV) are beyond the scope of this document.
