Event description:
In an effort to provide clinical information to healthcare providers and to assist people living with and affected by HIV with their fertility and pregnancy planning decisions, the Canadian HIV Pregnancy Planning Guidelines (CHPPG) were created in 2012, consisting of 36 recommendations. These evidence- and community-based, flexible guidelines were updated in 2018 to reflect new scientific evidence. Several practical, audience-specific resources have been developed to compliment the 2018 Guidelines, including a clinical pocket guide, counselling algorithm and the repackaging of the 36 recommendations into five standards of care. Most recently, the CHPPG team has translated the five standards of care and their associated recommendations into five interactive, CME approved e-learning modules.
This hybrid event will launch the novel modules and allow those in attendance to complete e-learning module(s) for CME credit in real time. The second half of the event will be used to discuss how best to optimize national reach of this new CME course with HIV care providers. Finally we aim to identify next steps in the HIV reproductive rights movement in Canada. Activities will include opening and closing by an Elder, presentation of the five modules, group discussions and next step planning. The event will be followed by a networking lunch shared with the National Action Plan ancillary event.Please contact the research coordinator Jill Koebel at jill.koebel@wchospital.ca if you have any questions.
NOTE: Please bring a laptop or other device with you to the session so you can access the modules.
Please register using this form by March 17th.
