Free Training: "Drug Resistence & HIV"

The widespread availability of antiretroviral therapy has made the fight against HIV a great deal easier. But like a horse without a rider, these medications can't go the distance alone. Working closely with their medical provider, clients/patients need to choose and monitor their treatment carefully. This is because of obstacles that can arise before and during treatment; with one of the most important being HIV drug resistance. Fortunately, there is a lot of knowledge and resources available to assist clients/patients with how to reduce the risk of drug resistance. This training will provide participants with an understanding of how drug resistance to HIV treatment medications develops and how to work with clients/patients who are experiencing drug resistance. By the end of this training, participants will be able to: define drug resistance; comprehend the importance of treatment adherence; and understand the impact of drug resistance on HIV treatment. CEU credits are available for this course.
