Community-enhanced reach activities
We will conduct a series of community engagement activities designed to reach persons at risk for HIV, undiagnosed with HIV or diagnosed, or hypertension, and fallen out of care, working closely with community health workers, integrated in the community health system.
Person-centered care delivery
Structured approach to provide patient-centered biomedical options for HIV prevention (dynamic choice prevention). Tailored services for HIV treatment support using structured life stage evaluation and assessment plan (LEAP) for youth, pregnant women, and persons with or at risk of HIV viral non-suppression, that includes counselling for heavy alcohol users. Structured approach to offer telehealth for severe hypertension follow up.
Data system enhancement to improve reach and person-centered delivery
Both community-enhanced reach and person-centered delivery will be strengthened through a customized in-country Ministry of Health-compatible community health worker smartphone app and two-way data system linking community health workers and clinical records.
