Abstract:
:In recognition of the increasing number of HIV-infected young people attending the HIV department at a district general hospital, a case note review was conducted. There was a high prevalence of psychosocial problems and medical complexity among this cohort. As a result, tailored young persons' services were developed. Effective utilisation of the existing skill-mix and resources were key to success.
