Nurse-Navigator Enhanced PrEP Support

Pharmacies randomized to the nurse-navigator model will receive tailored support counseling, in addition to receipt of standard PrEP services. Support counseling by nurse-navigators will provide educational messaging tailored to AGYW and actionable advice targeting PrEP persistence and adherence and/or FP topics, and will address participants' questions related to the content. Counseling will include adherence encouragement (IMB domain: motivation), PrEP efficacy and safety (IMB domain: information), self-efficacy for prevention of HIV, support for potential PrEP side effects, behavioral skills (tips for remembering PrEP medications, IMB domain: behavioral skills) and strategies for remembering PrEP refill schedules. During enrollment, the nurse-navigator will explain that support counseling is voluntary and that the nurse will also be available at the pharmacy to address concerns or questions whenever they arise outside of scheduled visits.
