Detailed programme framework
The sections below retain the programme’s activity explanations, monitoring guidance and planning considerations. Suggested measures and design guidance are distinct from the archive-reported activities and results above.
Programme purpose
Continuity between community and clinical care
The programme framework aims to strengthen access to HIV and TB services through community engagement, referral support and collaboration with qualified health providers.
Planned activities would address barriers to testing, treatment linkage, retention and follow-up, with attention to adolescents, pregnant and breastfeeding women, children and underserved populations.
Activity framework
Prevention, care and community support
HIV prevention and testing
Community education, information on prevention options and referrals for confidential testing and prevention services.
Care and treatment support
Support linkage to qualified providers, treatment literacy, appointment follow-up and retention in care.
TB service connections
Coordinate symptom screening, diagnostic referrals and treatment-support activities with qualified health services.
Maternal and child health
Support referrals for antenatal care, prevention of mother-to-child transmission, infant follow-up and family health services.
Community engagement
Plan peer support, accessible information and feedback channels, addressing stigma and barriers to service access. Include family-centred support and referrals for orphans and vulnerable children.
Health-system support
Explore provider mentorship, referral coordination, laboratory and supply-system links, and service data quality improvement.
Measure access and continuity
Suggested measures include referral completion, linkage to care, appointment continuity, retention, TB diagnostic follow-up and client experience. Clinical outcomes would use authorised facility data with agreed definitions and safeguards.
Plan with service providers
Clinical services would require qualified providers and applicable approvals. Programme planning would establish consent, confidentiality, safeguarding, referral agreements and coordination with health authorities.
