Description:
Background:

PHDP is Mozambique’s strategy to engage clinicians in the delivery of prevention messages to their HIV positive clients. This national implementation strategy uses provider trainings on offering key messages and focuses on intervening on nine evidence-based risk-reduction areas. We investigated the impact of longitudinal technical assistance(TA) as an addition to this basic training.

Methods:

We followed 153 healthcare providers in 5 Mozambican provinces over 6 months to evaluate the impact of on-site, observation-based TA on PHDP implementation. Longitudinal multilevel models were estimated to model change in PHDP message delivery over time among individual providers.

Results:

With each additional TA visit, providers delivered about one additional PHDP message (p<0.001); clinicians and non-clinicians started at about the same baseline level but clinicians improved more quickly (p=0.004). Message delivery varied by practice sector; maternal and child health sectors outperformed other sectors.

Conclusions:

Longitudinal TA helped reach the programmatic goals of the PHDP program in Mozambique.
