Test Says HIV+… Now What? Issues in Access and Linkage to Care

The HIV/AIDS Webinar Learning Series is a partnership between the BC Centre for Excellence in HIV/AIDS (BC-CfE) and Positive Living BC. The goal of the Series is to empower people living with HIV and to improve their quality of life by providing them and health care providers with up-to-date treatment information related to HIV/AIDS. Sessions will bring together experts to share their knowledge and provide a forum for interaction, dialogue and mutual learning.

By the end of this Webinar, participants will:

  • Understand why the first care encounter is so important
  • Understand the barriers to seeking or accessing care
  • Know the next steps in primary care
  • Know what clinical resources and community support are available

The BC-CfE Laboratory is streamlining reporting processes for certain tests in order to simplify distribution and record-keeping, and to ensure completeness of results. Beginning September 2, 2025, results for the ‘Resistance Analysis of HIV-1 Protease and Reverse Transcriptase’ (Protease-RT) and ‘HIV-1 Integrase Resistance Genotype’ tests will be combined into a single ‘HIV-1 Resistance Genotype Report’.
