Integrating ENGagement and Adherence Goals Upon Entry iENGAGE to Control HIV

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: HIV

In brief

iENGAGE is a 4 session, in-clinic behavioral intervention that is delivered to new clinic patients during the first year of HIV care on a flexible delivery schedule, with intervention visits scheduled to coincide with HIV medical care visits. Interventionists from each participating collaborating site will be trained centrally to implement the iENGAGE protocol. Following study enrollment and baseline assessment, participants will be randomized to treatment as usual and intervention groups. For intervention-arm participants, each iENGAGE intervention session includes: interventionist-delivered educational content for managing HIV medical care appointment-keeping and information sessions for learning to manage HIV medications. The intervention will have a tailored, interactive agenda for each of the 4 sessions based on behavioral motivational interviewing (MI) techniques. The goal of this intervention is for the participant to establish early behaviors that help him/her to arrive at scheduled medical appointments and learn to take medications as prescribed during the initial year of HIV care in order to improve overall health.
