Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) Khayelitsha has been working with the Department of Health in treating HIV/TB in a primary health care facility since 1999. For 2013, MSF’s objectives for the development of innovative strategies and interventions are as follows: adult first line ART treatment failure; nurse mentorship for ART initiation; decentralized DR-TB treatment; strengthened regiments for MDR/XDR; retention in care of horizontally infected youth; strengthened ART initiation counseling; community adherence clubs; and others. Children failing ART, vertically infected youth, and horizontally infected youth are three at risk cohorts of patients that need specifically tailored interventions to ensure treatment success, health outcomes, and long term retention in care.
