AIDS/HIV Clinics

Programs that provide comprehensive medical services on an inpatient or outpatient basis for people who have symptomatic or asymptomatic HIV infections or a clinical AIDS diagnosis. An HIV diagnosis follows a reactive test for the HIV virus; however, a diagnosis of AIDS is given by a physician only if an individual's CD4 cell count is below 200 or if the individual develops certain opportunistic infections. Given that effective treatment is available for individuals who have been diagnosed with HIV, it is likely that someone who is adherent to treatment will never receive an AIDS diagnosis.

Anticoagulation Management Programs

Programs that monitor and manage the administration of medication, principally warfarin (also called Coumadin), that is used to prevent and treat blood clots that can cause a stroke, heart attack or other serious medical problem. Anticoagulants are prescribed for a variety of conditions, and periodic monitoring including regular blood tests are often necessary to make sure that patient's condition is being treated appropriately and safely. Clinic staff also assess for any changes in the patient's medications and diet, as well as any side effects related to the therapy.

Arthritis Treatment Centers

Programs that provide comprehensive diagnostic and treatment services on an inpatient or outpatient basis for individuals who have arthritis and other joint disorders.

Dementia Management

Interventions include structured activities and exercises that are designed for people who have a short attention span and require extra verbal and visual stimulation with the objective of enhancing the individual's perception of the environment, promoting trust, reducing anxiety, avoiding overstimulation and maximizing communication skills.

Diabetes Management Clinics

Included are programs that provide comprehensive preventive, diagnostic and treatment services on an inpatient or outpatient basis as well as less formal programs that emphasize education and may provide any combination of supportive services such as case management, assistance in obtaining needed products and services, and assistance in following the prescribed treatment regimen. Diabetes is a chronic, incurable disease in which the pancreas fails to produce enough insulin to allow the body to adequately metabolize sugar.
