To determine the preferences of HIV seropositive women for out-patient care facilities.
Cross sectional survey.
An HIV out-patient clinic, a genitourinary medicine (GUM) clinic and a self support group for HIV seropositive women.
Fifty consecutive HIV seropositive women attending the out-patient clinic and 18 women attending the self support group.
Eighty percent of the women were comfortable in the HIV clinic. The discomfort felt by the remainder related to time spent in the waiting room. All the women reported feeling comfortable in the GUM clinic. However, 46% indicated a preference for a clinic attended only by female patients and 34% stated that they preferred only female staff. At the time of the survey only 61% of women attending the self support group were attending an outpatient clinic. An HIV clinic with integrated family planning, gynaecology, social workers and a creche was a universal preference expressed by these women. They also indicated a preference for female doctors (83%).
Women with HIV infection have clear views on the facilities which they would prefer to be available in regard to their out-patient care. In response to these wishes and particularly because of the high percentage of women not currently attending for outpatient care we have commenced a women only clinic.
确定HIV血清反应阳性女性对门诊护理设施的偏好。
横断面调查。
一家HIV门诊诊所、一家泌尿生殖医学（GUM）诊所和一个HIV血清反应阳性女性自助小组。
连续50名到门诊就诊的HIV血清反应阳性女性以及18名参加自助小组的女性。
80%的女性在HIV诊所感觉舒适。其余女性感到不适的原因是在候诊室等待的时间。所有女性都表示在GUM诊所感觉舒适。然而，46%的女性表示更喜欢只由女性患者就诊的诊所，34%的女性表示她们更喜欢只有女性工作人员的诊所。在调查时，参加自助小组的女性中只有61%在门诊就诊。这些女性普遍希望有一家综合了计划生育、妇科、社会工作者和托儿所的HIV诊所。她们还表示更喜欢女医生（83%）。
感染HIV的女性对她们希望在门诊护理中获得的设施有明确的看法。为了回应这些愿望，特别是由于目前未参加门诊护理的女性比例很高，我们开设了一家只针对女性的诊所。
