What this trial studies
This project aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a one-stop PrEP delivery model in improving the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of PrEP services in public health facilities in western Kenya. The study will involve training healthcare providers and implementing strategies for better service delivery while collecting data on PrEP initiation and continuation among individuals aged 15 and older. A nested observational cohort will also be recruited to assess individual clinical, behavioral, and mental health outcomes, including those who discontinue PrEP.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates for this study are individuals aged 15 and older who are seeking PrEP services and are eligible according to Kenya's national guidelines.
Not a fit: Patients who are already living with HIV or those who do not meet the eligibility criteria for PrEP will not benefit from this study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could enhance access to HIV prevention services and improve adherence to PrEP among at-risk populations.
How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown promising results with similar integrated care models, indicating potential for success in this approach.
