It also provides important prevention and education counseling, with an innovative and discrete video educational system. This service takes less than 30 minutes, and is available in our emergency department and in many other outpatient areas of the hospital. Patients who do test positive are immediately linked to care provided by our HIV Center, where doctors offer all the latest in HIV/AIDS treatments, services, and support programs.
