Service Description

 

This service conducts activities to prevent the spread of HIV and STDs.  Major activities include:

  • Conduct HIV/STD surveillance for collection of data for program planning and targeted intervention.
  • Refer clients to medical care and initial appointment.
  • In partnership with community partners, provide HIV and STD testing in both local health departments and non-traditional settings.

This service benefits both clients and the general public.  Increased HIV testing allows HIV-positive individuals to be identified and cared for; this results in improved health for them as well as significantly less risk of transmission to others.  By altering and reducing risky behaviors and assuring that individuals are in care, the transmission of HIV and other STDs is reduced.

 

Services are provided by Disease Intervention Specialists (DIS) and by local health departments, colleges and universities and community-based organizations.
