Our recent series of feature articles has looked at the innovative ways HCPs have been engaging with the community to increase awareness and lower the transmission of STIs. With the results from the Great British Sex Survey captivating the imagination of HCPs all over the country, we now look at how you can combine this curiosity with your own innovative survey, as part of our new Durex Reveal programme.

Regional statistics may provide a snapshot of information in any given area but, if you are one of the many HCPs who want to get to the heart of the matter and find out how those statistics apply to your local area, Durex Reveal will provide you with the information you need...

If you could ask your clients anything, what would it be? If you could compile that information from a broad range of clients, how do you think that would influence the services you provide in your clinic? While it is undoubtedly an interesting question, many HCPs may lack the resources needed to organise and document a survey... until now.

Introducing Durex Reveal

Launching as part of National Condom Week, Durex Reveal allows you to compile your own clinic survey from a simple web-based programme that puts you in control. Durex Reveal is the perfect complement for any other schemes and initiatives you may be running in your clinic and setting up your survey is as easy as 1,2,3...create, publish and analyse all at the click of a button.

• Choose your questions
  Durex Reveal is designed to be easy to use. You can choose from a list of pre-defined survey questions (Reveal Lite) or compile your own (Reveal Pro). You can even set a time frame for how long you would like the survey to run.

• Ask your clients
  There is no paperwork involved. Simply print off and provide your clients with an anonymous login slip when they attend the clinic. They can then complete your survey online when they have the time.

• Get the answers
  Durex Reveal results are compiled automatically at the end of the survey saving you the need to process and analyse the data yourself. Our statistics generator will even put your results into easily readable charts making them easy to understand at a glance.

Get involved... draw your own conclusions

Durex Reveal provides you with an unprecedented way to document demographic and statistical information and examine the sexual lifestyles and trends of people in your area. You can even compare your results against other clinics or indeed other areas. It is so much more than a web based-survey because it could strengthen your case for additional departmental funding or it might provide you with the evidence to you need to justify the launch of a new scheme within the clinic.

To take part, simply follow the Durex Reveal link from the DurexHCP homepage and follow the
instructions. Your local Business Development Manager will then send you your login
details so that you can start to compile your survey.
