This book highlights the dilemmas faced in providing comprehensive, integrated care to individuals living with HIV disease. It provides both an understanding of existing efforts to integrate diverse systems of care, as well as insight into ways in which systems of care must be challenged in order to meet the needs of people living with HIV.
A comprehensive health care system consists of services that are coordinated and integrated along the full continuum of care. For HIV patients, this includes physical health care, infectious disease management, crisis care, mental health care, substance abuse counselling, and social support services including housing, transportation, subsistence, and supports for dealing with multiple sources of stigma.

It provides both an understanding of existing efforts to integrate diverse systems of care, as well as insight into ways in which systems of care must be challenged to meet the needs of people living with HIV.
Comprehensive Care for HIV/AIDS is the result of collaborative work with the county Health Department, numerous community-based organisations, and several planning boards in a metropolitan area, which have sought to provide integrated care to people living with HIV. It will be a valuable resource to the diverse community of HIV researchers, advocates, and providers.
