Grant Title: HIV Early Intervention for Mississippi Community Health Centers.
Project Period: 10/94-09/99.
Description: University of Mississippi Medical Center (UMC) proposes to enhance the capacity of health care providers in rural clinics to diagnose and treat asymptomatic HIV disease. This will occur by expanding the Delta AIDS Education and Training Center's (DAETC) ability to provide clinical training for those providers with a computer-based distance learning system and building on the existing preceptorship provided by DAETC. Physicians, nurse practitioners, and dentists at targeted clinics will be provided updated medical references, access to sources of additional HIV funding, and a means for interactive training supervised by HIV specialists at UMC. Providers and community health centers in areas of highest HIV prevalence will be targeted.
