WHERE DO THEY GO FOR HEALTH PROBLEMS; THE ROLE OF PRIVATE PROVIDERS IN
DEVELOPMENT OF COMPREHENSIVE HEALTH CARE FOR FSWS IN BALI

Kumala d1, Januraga PP1

Background: female sex workers (fSWs) is a group that have high vulnerabilities in getting hIV-AIdS,
therefore they need comprehensive health care services to prevent the transmission In Bali this
group has been provided health care in some Stds and hIV-AIdS dedicated clinics which provided
by government and nGo, but still limited known about how they seek health care facilities if got
diseases the objective of this research was to describe the health seeking behavior of fSWs in
denpasar, Bali

1

School of Public health, udayana
university, Bali Indonesia

Method: this was a descriptive cross sectional study with 84 samples which randomly taken from
Padanggalak area, one of the biggest brothel complexes in denpasar data was collected using
questioner in April 2011
Results: All of fSWs have health problems in the last six months and most of them (86 9%) have
general problem while only 13 1% have Stds related problems regarding health seeking behaviors,
85 7% were actively tried to solve their problems and 55 6% of them looked for formal health care
facilities Among those who looked for health care facilities, 62 5% chose private physicians while
the rest chose health centers, hospital clinics, and private nurses Among those who went to formal
health care providers, 62 5% of them went to provider from outside Padanggalak area this becomes
interesting since most of the respondents (85 7%) were not covered by health insurance system
Conclusion: the fSWs showed interest in seeking health care facilities even to private providers
that usually more expensive compare to government facilities Involvement of private providers
should be considered in developing comprehensive health care services for fSWs More research
and upgrading skill of those providers in order to respond the health needs of fSWs should be
conducted
Keywords: sex workers, health care, Bali

DOES SEXUAL IDENTITY IMPACT ON CLIENTS’ EXPERIENCES OF STIGMA AND
DISCRIMINATION? A CLIENT SERVICES SNAPSHOT.

Kaan 11, hunter t2, Shepherd
B1, Martin C2

Background. It is widely accepted that the implications of stigma and discrimination faced by
people living with hIV correlates to poorer health outcomes (both physical and psychological)
We asked the question, ‘does sexual identity impact on clients’ experiences of stigma and
discrimination?’

1 hIV and related Programs health
Promotion unit – northern Sydney
local health district, Sydney, nSW,
Australia

northern Sydney Sexual health
Service, royal north Shore hospital,
Sydney, nSW, Australia

A study at a local publicly funded specialist clinic in northern Sydney was conducted to review
current clients’ perspectives regarding service provision, experiences of discrimination, current
access to hIV support services and perceived needs
Methods. from June to december 2010, 79 hIV positive clients attending a local publicly funded
clinic were recruited to take part in a survey
Results. of the respondents, 27 identiied as heterosexual, 7 as bisexual, and 43 as gay (two did
not respond) the median age was 47 years there were observable diferences between heterosexual
and gay respondents Compared with the gay respondents, heterosexuals were less likely to disclose
their hIV status, less likely to access hIV based organisations and more likely to report experiences
of discrimination and negative attitudes from healthcare providers
Conclusion. While the numbers in this study were lower than expected, the diferences indicated
that we need to respond by providing targeted services and support this highlights the need to
address discrimination and negative attitudes of healthcare providers through advocating and
encouraging the wider hIV sector to actively market their services, in particular to those who
identify as heterosexual
