“…41 This model assumes patients are willing and able to accept referral, a fact that makes it unsuitable for women with HIV who frequently are overwhelmed by stigma and by competing demands from multiple health care and social service providers. For patients who are depressed or distrustful, these demands may add to the stressor burden and exceed reasonable expectations for care.…”

The high rate of mental health problems in HIV-infected women jeopardizes the health of this vulnerable population, and constitutes a mandate for integrating mental health services into HIV primary care. The Whole Life project—a collaboration of the departments of Psychiatry and Obstetrics/Gynecology at the University of Miami School of Medicine—successfully integrated mental health services into primary HIV care for women. This article describes the conceptual framework of the integration, implementation strategies, effects of the service integration, and lessons learned. Funded by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) as a Special Program of National Significance (SPNS), Whole Life efforts have been sustained beyond the demonstration funding period as a result of the changes brought about in organizational structures, service delivery, and the providers' conceptualization of health for HIV-infected women.

“…Moreover, the model cannot handle the changing epidemiology of HIV/AIDS, such as the increase in intravenous drug users (Jenna, 1987). Variations of the community-based model focus on the community health center, the public health department, or the local hospital as the central agency in the alliance (Arno & Hughes, 1987;Berry, et al, 1995;DeHovitz & Pellegrino, 1987;Gold, et a]., 1994;Jenna, 1987;Mor et al, 1994). These types of models often are effective because the organizations are considered part of the medical community and can make use of existing networks (Mor, et al, 1994).…”

Delivering Care to Rural HIV / AIDS Patients

With HIV/AIDS on the rise in rural areas, health care providers must find ways of delivering care with little or no increase in resource support. This paper examines the evolution of a rural HIV/AIDS alliance using a life cycle model to identify each stage of the alliance development and the specific issues associated with each stage. The data were collected through structured interviews and by review of background materials, including budgets, grant proposals, and program reports. The findings identify alliance strategies that can be used in other rural communities facing the challenge of serving an increasing number of HIV/AIDS patients with limited resources. Differing from other models, this rural HIV/AIDS alliance emerged from local government and community support into an independent, nonprofit organization operating through a network of interorganizational relationships.
