Do HIV provider and client perspectives align on person-centered care? Lessons learned from implementation of the Person-Centered Care Assessment Tool (PCC-AT) in HIV treatment settings in Ghana
Person-centered care (PCC) is foundational to improve client’s experiences in care while advancing HIV-related outcomes. However, information is scarce on how to assess PCC in HIV treatment settings.

The objectives of this study were to: (1) pilot the PCC-AT and assess scoring consistency and reliability among clients and providers; and (…

Perspectives of Policymakers on the Introduction and Scale-Up of HIV Self-Testing and Implication for National HIV Programming in Ghana

Studies have shown high acceptability and feasibility of HIVST among various target populations globally. However, less is known about the perspectives of policymakers, who are critical to the success of HIVST implementation. Their views on barriers to the introduction and scale-up of self…
