This didactic presentation is the kick-off of our newest training series, "Essentials of HIV-Integrated Care: Expanding Whole-Person Care Through Comprehensive and Specialty Trainings", an HIV-Syndemic focused training series aimed at providing the most up-to-date information and education for medical health care team members currently not involved in HIV care to increase their ability to prevent new HIV infections, identify people with HIV who are undiagnosed or out of care, and link patients not on antiretrovirals to care.
Our first session will be on Routine HIV Testing & Status Neutral Linkage to Care and will be presented by Dr. Elie Helou from StayWell Health Center.
The presentation's objectives include:
- Increase awareness of Rapid HIV/HCV testing modalities
- Learn the best approach for conducting a sexual health history
- Review how to appropriately deliver a test result
- Examine how to effectively refer patients for further treatment and services
All sessions provided in the Essentials of HIV-Integrated Care Series are CME-accredited. For more information, please reach out Dante Gennaro, Program Director of the NEAETC's Yale University Local Partner site.
