Enhancing an HIV index case testing passive referral model through a behavioral skills-building training for healthcare providers: a pre/post-assessment in Mangochi District
In 2017, Baylor Malawi orientated Health Care Workers from 36 health facilities in Mangochi to Malawi's ICF program and began implementation. A brief behavioral skills-building training impacted a range of meaningful outcomes, including identification of HIV-positive individuals in a passive ICF program. Such approaches could facilitate the identification of HIV-positive persons unaware of their HIV status, a necessary step for engagement in HIV care.
