Identify the special issues and social determinants of health that are inherent to people living with HIV (PLWH) and those who could benefit from preventative services in sparsely populated areas. Compared to PLWH in urban areas, PLWH in rural communities often have to travel further to access care, have increased difficulty accessing care due to a severe workforce shortage, have a lower awareness of resources that are available, and face increased stigma and isolation when trying to access information, testing, preventative care, or treatment for HIV. This committee will not only identify the issues but will develop solutions.
The committee is comprised of nurse practitioners, and other members of the healthcare team working in HIV care and prevention who are based in rural areas, provide services to clients living in these areas or have an interest in rural health. If you are interested in joining this committee, please complete the Committee application.
