Description

Gemmae Fix, Janet Clark, and Allen Gifford wrote a 2023 study on bringing a whole-health care model into HIV clinics. The US Department of Veterans Affairs is rolling out Whole Health, a patient-centered approach that aligns care with what matters most to each patient. Rollout centers on primary care, but HIV clinics have long provided both HIV and primary care.

People with HIV are aging into complex health and life situations that fit the Whole Health approach well. The team interviewed 11 physicians, psychologists, nurses, and leaders at three clinics, using story vignettes to spark discussion. Findings were mapped onto an implementation framework. Most staff knew of Whole Health and wanted it, yet no clinic offered its services and few had training. The study lists what clinics need to adopt the model.
