Neftaly Goal: Decreasing Morbidity and Mortality Due to TB\/HIV by Striving for Universal Access to TB\/HIV Services<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tuberculosis (TB) and HIV co-infection pose a significant public health challenge, with each disease accelerating the progression and severity of the other. Neftaly is committed to reducing the burden of TB\/HIV by ensuring that all affected populations have timely and equitable access to comprehensive, integrated TB\/HIV prevention, diagnosis, and treatment services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Our goal is to decrease morbidity and mortality from TB\/HIV by striving for universal access to high-quality TB\/HIV services across all levels of the health system.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Promote the integration of TB and HIV services to provide one-stop, patient-centered care<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Strengthen collaboration between TB and HIV programmes to ensure coordinated screening, diagnosis, and treatment<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Expand access to antiretroviral therapy (ART) and TB preventive therapy for co-infected individuals<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    2. Early Diagnosis and Treatment<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Increase routine TB screening among people living with HIV and vice versa<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Scale up rapid diagnostic tools and ensure prompt initiation of appropriate treatment regimens<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Monitor treatment adherence and outcomes to improve success rates and reduce drug resistance<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      3. Community Engagement and Support<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      • Mobilize communities to raise awareness of TB\/HIV co-infection risks and the importance of early care<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Strengthen community-based support systems to promote retention in care and adherence to treatment<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Address stigma and discrimination to improve health-seeking behavior and service uptake<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        4. Capacity Building and Health Systems Strengthening<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        • Train healthcare providers in TB\/HIV integrated management and patient counseling<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Strengthen laboratory networks and supply chains to support reliable diagnosis and treatment<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Enhance data collection and use to monitor programme performance and identify gaps<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
          \n\n\n\n

          Expected Impact<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
            \n
          • Reduced TB incidence and mortality among people living with HIV<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Increased coverage of integrated TB\/HIV services, ensuring patients receive timely and effective care<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Improved quality of life and survival rates for individuals affected by TB\/HIV<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Progress toward national and global targets for TB and HIV control and elimination<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
