Hiv-Abc: Bringing Healthcare Home, University Of Kentucky Project Chance Grant, Kelley Ratermann, Julia Brenneman, David Wittmer, Molly Trent, Frank Romanelli, Andrea Pfeifle

JCIPE 2012

This program serves to enhance antiretroviral adherence within a population of patients identified to have barriers to optimal medication compliance, and to enhance interprofessional camaraderie and HIV/AIDS knowledge through participation with a community-based organization (CBO).

“HIV– ABC: Bringing Healthcare Home” was created by UK College of Pharmacy students as a way to form an “Adherence Buddy and Counselor” system between HIV patients and trained student pharmacists. Students are matched with identified non-adherent patients and attend clinic visits to help improve adherence and reduce/manage medication adverse effects. Clinic patients also receive nutritional counseling/modified menus to address nutritional needs from the CBO …
