July 2008:
What is
HIV Care and Support?
As more people benefit from anti-retroviral medicines in the developing
world, more people with AIDS live longer and require continuing support to
manage their condition and take their medication properly. Medicines
therefore need to go hand in hand with care and support. This event,
chaired by Sally Joss, from the UK Consortium on AIDS and International
Development featured speakers from VSO, Mildmay Hospital and the Care and
Support Working Group of the Consortium. It looked at what a comprehensive
package of care and support should include.
