SUMMARY:HIV & Hep C Co-infection (NYC Health Dept)
DESCRIPTION:HIV & Hep C Co-infection\n\nWednesday\, December 17\, 2025 | 10 AM – 1:30 PM\n\nRSVP\n\nDescription:\nThis two part (3 hours total – 2 sessions that are each 1.5 hours) training is for health and human service providers who work with people living with HIV and who need updated information about HIV/Hep C co-infection in order to provide effective services to their clients.

Hep C screening is recommended for all persons living with HIV. \nAs a result of this training\, participants will be able to: \n\nRecall basic information about the liver and hepatitis C\, including transmission\, prevention\, course of illness\, screening and treatment;\nCounsel their HIV positive client about the importance of knowing their Hep C status;\nDescribe how co-infection with HIV and Hep C affects the progression of each disease;\nRecall current trends and improvements in treatment for people who are co-infected with HIV and Hep C; and\nList at least three additional service needs of people with HIV who are also co-infected with Hep C.\n\nPrerequisite: Although there is no prerequisite for this training\, it is strongly recommended that participants have previous training in HIV/AIDS. \nRSVP
