DAPCU North Delhi Response to the Theme: Care and Support Services for PLHIVs in the Absence of CCCs

Integrating Care and Support Services to PLHIV in the Existing Government Health Facilities" in the Absence of CCCs in the District.
  1. In our North district there is no ART Center and CCC from the beginning and now also. So, we did not face any problem or difficulty after closing the CCC in the districts.
  2. As there is no ART Center and CCC from the beginning and now also, we did not take any measures to replace the services given by CCC.
  3. If any problem is occurred to get in Patient & out Patient services in the existing Govt. Health facilities by PLHIV, DAPCU staff take appropriate action by coordinating with ICTC Counselor, ART Counselor, Doctors in the hospital so that the PLHIV would get in Patient & out Patient services in the existing Govt. Health facilities.
  4. Discussed with CDMO, DACO and other medical officers about the OIs infection when the PLHAs need admission in the hospital. We have sent a Circular through Deputy Commissioner, North District to all the Medical Superintendent of Hospitals and Medical Officer In-chage of Maternity Home of North District for:  (a) providing all available health services in the facility to people infected and affected by HIV / AIDS, (b) ANC who is detected to be HIV positive in the district should be delivered within district hospital, sub hospital and maternity homes.
