STI Clinic Vetting Program
A safeguard of our resources
Read on to see how PRISM ensures our services are as accurate as possible.
What is the STI Clinic Search?
PRISM's STI Clinic Search is a network of easily accessible, affordable health centers that offer STI testing in South Florida. For every clinic in our system, PRISM provides the location, contact information, types of tests offered, pricing, and operating hours. For many clinics, PRISM also gives further information on wait times, parking, other services offered, and more!
What is the STI Clinic Vetting Program?
PRISM regularly updates our information through our STI Clinic Vetting Program. This volunteer-led initiative has people like you go through the entire process of getting tested at the clinics we list on our site, from booking an appointment/doing a walk-in all the way to receiving their results. If our volunteers don’t have a good experience, we’ll tell you why!
Do I need to be a part of the STI Clinic Vetting Program to review a clinic?
No! Anyone who's received an STI test at one of the clinics listed on our site is welcome to complete this survey to tell us about their experience. If you are not enrolled in the program, you can find the link to the survey by going to our STI Clinic Search and clicking "More Info" on the relevant clinic.
​
Participants in the STI Clinic Vetting Program get tested at clinics specifically to report on the quality of services offered. Participants are given training on STIs and testing, as well as what to expect when getting tested. They are also required to ask specific questions to clinic staff to gather complete information on the clinic. Community service is also offered to participants who are enrolled in the program.
Do I have to disclose my test results to participate in the STI Clinic Vetting Program?
No! PRISM only asks that participants provide information on the time and manner in which they got their results.
​
If you decide to do so, you may also provide information about case management services that you receive after testing positive. However, this is completely optional.
What are the eligibility requirements for participating in the program?
PRISM aims to ensure that the clinics we refer are welcoming to everyone. In order to achieve this, we encourage individuals from all backgrounds to apply.
