cell phone SMS text messaging
This study will utilize mobile texting services to send text messages to enrolled subjects on a weekly basis. The text would convey messages that promote better awareness and knowledge on HIV and its treatment, reminders for medication adherence and clinic appointments. The text content would also be customized based on individual subject requirements. English will be used in texting. We would also assess the subjects for traditional demographic items (e.g., age, marital status, education, number/age of other children, employment, and religion), and potential environmental barriers (e.g., transportation and childcare).
