+ in+care Campaign Webinar | Sustainability of Retention Projects in Unsure Funding Environments
Wednesday, January 9, 2013 at 2pm ET
Agenda: Amy Sitapati of the Owen Clinic at UCSD will present on her agency's progress in sustaining retention projects once the dedicated funding source for them has expired. This is an issue of great importance, because as we know, eventually, almost all funding comes to an end, but our work never does. We will also be reviewing the data that has been submitted through the in+care Campaign to date and introducing our new enhanced data reports - Ryan White Parts by Measure! If you have any specific questions you'd like to have addressed through this program, please contact Michael at Michael@nationalqualitycenter.org. No pre-registration needed, just enter the room as a guest at the time of this program.

+ Journal Club Webinar | How Can We Increase the Initiation if and Retention in Care for Persons Living with HIV?
Wednesday, January 30, 2013 at 2pm ET
Agenda: Dr. Medha Vyavaharkar of the University of South Carolina will present the findings from an on-going qualitative research study that is designed to gain a better understanding of factors that may facilitate or impede initiation and continuation of HIV care in a rural county with a predominantly minority population in South Carolina. In addition to the patient-specific themes such as desire for survival, self-determination, and fear of disclosure, themes related to organizational culture and characteristics emerged as critical elements in retaining patients in the care system. These findings will help individuals and organizations that offer services to PLWHA to reflect upon their interactions with clients and formulate strategies to improve the care retention rates
30 minutes will be saved for questions from the audience. If you have any specific questions you would like to have addressed, please mail them to Michael@nationalqualitycenter.org in advance! No pre-registration needed, just enter the room as a guest at the time of this program.
