Making Space for HIV Care: Starting in Care

In this episode, Yvonne Gilleece, MB BCh, BAO, FRCP, uses a case study to illustrate why giving people space and time to engage in HIV care on their terms is key to overcoming potential shame and stigma.

She discusses how people can be very vulnerable when engaging in HIV care, and trauma-informed care can help address these vulnerabilities in a safe, respectful way. Listen as she gives her perspectives on:

• Trauma-informed care
• Overcoming stigma and shame
• Staying in care
