Training Webinar
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the HIV/AIDS Bureau at the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and five participating CDC partner organizations, have issued the Recommendations for HIV Prevention with Adults and Adolescents with HIV in the United States, 2014. The recommendations, which update and expand the 2003 recommendations, target a broader range of health professionals, clinicians, and organizations.
Why the Update?
The HIV landscape has changed significantly over the last decade, including improvements in HIV prevention, care and treatment strategies; advances in biomedical, behavioral, and structural prevention tactics; changes in the public- and private-sector health care delivery model, and updates to national HIV prevention strategies. The updated Recommendations offer providers, health departments, and HIV planning groups an expanded set of interventions to enhance and improve their prevention, planning, and treatment services.
The Recommendations are accompanied by three summary publications featuring a subset of recommendations for various professional audiences:
- Summary for Clinical Providers – Intended for clinical providers who serve individuals with HIV in health care facilities
- Summary for Nonclinical Providers – Intended for nonclinical providers who work in community-based organizations or health departments outside of healthcare facilities and who offer HIV testing, health education, risk-reduction interventions, partner services, case management, or assistance with linkage or referral to medical and social services.
- Summary for Health Departments and HIV Planning Groups – Intended for those who provide population-level HIV prevention and care services, such as HIV surveillance or coordination of state and local HIV prevention and care resources.
