VCT and Treatment Access: VCT Notes: Persons are advised to call in advance for VCT appointments Treatment Notes: Treatment is monitored by two persons in the country Dr. Ken and Dr. Arriaga. Dr. Arriaga volunteers his time at KHMH in the Belize District while Dr. Ken works in the south at the Southern Regional Hospital.
CD4 testing- Free testing is located in all 6 districts of the country Viral Load Testing - As a matter of practice there is very little viral testing done because of cost which may run about $900 Belize dollars per person. Diet & Nutrition guidelines - Nutritional Booklets are given out in the system, but follow-up support barely exists. For mothers who breastfeed, the Ministry of Health provides two cans of milk, but if the child uses more, the parent must cover the cost. ARV’s are given to pregnant women who are infected and programs of testing mothers exist to that process of medication treatment. Psych Nurses are available for those with mental problems |
