Caring for people with human immunodeficiency virus. Incorporating the patient's perspective.

The interdisciplinary HIV work team meets to improve care for people with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Through its efforts, including patient and provider focus groups, the team identified what is done well in caring for patients with HIV, the obstacles that patients encounter in accessing care, and how to prepare for the future. The work team has been instrumental in developing ideas and implementing changes by serving as a vehicle for communication and enhancing a spirit of collaboration.
