15 15 Results Medical consultations Overall population

16 16 Results Qualitative survey of patient satisfaction with counselling consultations : CG (n=9) : Ambiguity between progress and constraints of new treatments Deep questioning about adherence IG GI (n=9) : Satisfaction with the information provided and the listening Feeling of ability to handle the treatment Development of a spirit of critical participation in treatment follow-up The consultation appears as a social support

17 17 Results: counselling nurses’ activity 1999-2004 (1)

18 18 Results: counselling nurses’ activity 1999-2004 (2) 2 consultations/year/patient

19 19 Discussion (1) National factors encouraging this activity Political support for treatment education of chronic diseases in general (Law 2004-806 relative to Public Health Policy) Recent development of a « counselling culture » in France Increase in counselling activities addressing HIV-infected patients, in spite of assessment gaps

20 20 http://www.counselingvih.org A Counselling, Health, Development & « Comment Dire » Project

21 21 Discussion (2) : Local factors in favour of this activity Involvement of Nice University Hospital management to encourage health promotion and patient education activities. Elaboration of a permanent program with on-going assessments by the Public Health Department High degree of motivation on the nurses’ part Participation of physicians.

22 22 Discussion (3) : Positive assessment results for the patients Positive impact on long-term viral load Fewer medical consultations Patients participate in a more active way in the management of their treatment.

23 23 Discussion (4) Local difficulties 2 of the 3 care units have diversified their recruitment in terms of pathology –Change in patient recruitment profile – HIV activity increasingly concentrated in a single care unit and nurse Nurses ’ availability for counselling activities has decreased due to : – Reduced number of nurses available for patient education in favour of technical care –Recognition of nurses ’ skills : involvement in teaching and scientific communication tasks

24 24 Discussion (5) National difficulties No economic evaluation of counselling activity : Time consuming activity Need of an identification system, systematic data collection and processing of activity Implementation of payment system based on diagnosis- related groups in French hospitals (2004) : no price setting from Health Ministry for educational activities

25 25 The program confirms its permanence and benefit for patients A contextual fragility in spite of institutional involvement Need for economic evaluation Conclusion
