Partnership for Health

Effective Interventions

Partnership for Health (PfH) uses message framing, repetition, and reinforcement during patient visits to increase HIV positive patients’ knowledge, skills, and motivations to practice safer sex. The program is designed to improve patient-provider communication about safer sex, disclosure of HIV serostatus, and HIV prevention. Implementation of PfH includes development of clinic and staff “buy-in” and training.
