Summary

This study evaluates an interactive computer counseling tool to help HIV-positive individuals develop an integrated health promotion plan incorporating antiretroviral (ART) adherence and HIV transmission risk reduction. We hypothesize that evidence-based counseling for ART adherence support and for HIV transmission risk reduction can be delivered effectively in a self-administered computer tool.

CARE+

CARE+ is a .NET based application on tablet computers that comprises risk assessment, medication monitoring, tailored feedback, stage-based skills-building videos, motivational interviewing counseling, an integrated health promotion plan, and printout with referrals. Evidence-based approaches (pharmacist education, self-efficacy/importance scaling exercises, and consequence-framing) are incorporated.
