Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility and acceptability of implementing clinic system changes and physical structures in Uganda to improve aesthetics, welcome, and privacy to reduce HIV stigma, improve retention-in-care, and improve the patient experience.

To evaluate pilot/implementation outcomes, the outcomes of fidelity, feasibility, and acceptability will be assessed prior to intervention. After the changes are done to two HIV interventions clinics, the outcome surveys will assess if the changes were disruptive or impeded the workings of the clinics.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Acceptability survey [Baseline]

    How well an intervention will be received by the target population and the extent to which the intervention meets the needs of the target population and organizational setting. This will be assessed through qualitative evaluation and a quantitative survey from patients and staff.

  2. Feasibility [baseline]

    An assessment of the practicality of a proposed idea or project, by assessing recruitment capacity, and ability to complete proposed modifications in clinics. The intervention will be judged feasible if enrollment and metrics can be completed.

  3. Fidelity to the Intervention [6-months post intervention]

    Assesses whether the intervention was delivered as intended, using the intervention plan/checklist

  4. Outcomes survey [6-months post intervention]

    assesses if the changes were disruptive or impeded the workings of the clinics.
