Journal Article
Patient navigators effectively support HIV-infected individuals returning to the community from jail settings
2017
Overview
PurposePatient navigation is an evidence-based approach for enhancing medical and support service co-ordination and ensuring linkage to medical care for people living with HIV released from jail. The paper aims to discuss this issue.Design/methodology/approachThis brief describes the benefits of patient navigation and issues to consider when implementing a navigator program. The authors use process data to describe the type and amount of navigation services delivered as part of a randomized study, the “The San Francisco Navigator Project.”FindingsNavigation programs are able to accommodate a range of service needs; most clients required multiple types of services, particularly during the first two months after release.Originality/valueNavigation programs should be prioritized because they provide unique and essential support for people leaving jail during the particularly vulnerable time immediately after release navigation plays a crucial role in retaining individuals in care and preventing onward transmission of HIV.
