Pediatric and Adolescent
Community Advisory Boards (CAB)
Members of the
Community Advisory Board (CAB) include parents/caregivers of HIV-infected
children, HIV health care workers and other interested people in the community.
The CAB seeks input and feedback regarding clinic operations and patient's needs
that will improve services and research for all HIV affected patients at
Children's Memorial Hospital.
The CAB meets six times a year to:
-
Discuss improvements
for the program's services
-
Help in
implementing new pediatric, adolescent and perinatal
research
-
Review HIV
education materials used in the community
-
Assess
the effectiveness
of Children's Memorial's HIV/AIDS
program
A newly formed Adolescent CAB is addressing similar issues that are specific
to teens with HIV/AIDS.
