A RISK MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
HIV INFECTION: CHALLENGES IN DIVERSE
COMMUNITIES AND UNDERSERVED POPULATIONS
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION:
New challenges and obstacles continue to face providers regarding
HIV infection. Despite treatment
advantages in this country, HIV
infection continues to have a significant impact on health care effects,
especially in underserved populations. This is particularly true when
HIV is combined with other infections, such as tuberculosis (TB).
HIV Infection: Challenges in Diverse
Communities and Underserved
Populations will focus on the ongoing
issue of HIV infection in those who
are underserved, specifically women
and immigrants, in Massachusetts.
Women with the HIV infection now
constitute 30 percent of all HIV cases
in the state, with women of color
being disproportionately represented.
The conference will present a new
look at gendered risk and its cultural
dimensions, the challenges of addiction and psychiatric disease, medical
management issues, and a review
of successful women-centered
programs.
Although both groups present
unique needs, both socially and
medically, co-infection with TB in
the immigrant population presents a
particular challenge to the medical
community regarding clinical presentation, recognition, and treatment
strategies. Conference topics will
include risk factors, tuberculosis
therapy, potential drug interaction
with highly active anti-retroviral
therapy (HAART), and evolving
issues such as multidrug resistance
in tuberculosis.
TARGET AUDIENCE:
All HIV/AIDS healthcare providers
PROGRAM GOAL:
To examine the challenges of HIV care in diverse populations and health care
issues unique to women with HIV infection. To explore the intersection of HIV
disease with tuberculosis and provide strategies to optimize delivery of care with
special attention to cultural, mental health, and substance abuse issues.
EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES:
• To provide an overview of the
dramatic incidence of HIV/TB
co-infection worldwide and the
complications of the HIV/TB
co-infected patient
• To illustrate the challenges of
treating HIV infection in diverse
communities
• To explain the gender risks factors,
clinical management, and impact
of successful treatment programs
for HIV-infected women
• To present mental health and substance abuse issues as they pertain
to culturally diverse populations
