Abstract:
The commitment of the French Red Cross Society to the fight against HIV/AIDS in Africa and Asia is based on day care centers (DCC) set up and operated within public hospitals. These outpatient facilities offer global care including clinical and biologic follow-up for patients undergoing anti-retroviral treatment. In most countries these DCC have become reference centers providing support for national decentralization policies. To reinforce the impact of their activities, centers offer regular educational programs and provide extensive training for medical personnel.
