Patient navigators effectively support HIV-infected individuals returning to the community from jail settings.
International Journal of Prisoner Health 2017 September 12
Purpose Patient 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/approach This 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." Findings Navigation 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/value Navigation 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.
