case management
Case Management is critical in the effort to live well with HIV. HIV case management utilizes an individualized care plan which includes discussion of medical, psychosocial, financial and other supportive services in order to assist clients to overcome barriers to care. The primary goals of the Case Management Program are to ensure continuity of care, to encourage medication adherence so clients can become virally suppressed, to promote self-sufficiency and to enhance the quality of life for individuals living with HIV.
