ECHO Colorado Learning Community Offerings

Think HIV isn’t a problem in your community? Think again.
-Many of the risk factors that put persons at risk for HCV are the same risk factors that put someone at risk for HIV.
-Injection drug use is on the rise statewide. Intravenous drug use is spiking in rural communities across Colorado and the nation due to the challenges of acquiring prescription medications and the accessibility and cost of illicit drugs such as heroin.
-HIV prevention is important in every community. By providing testing, linking individuals to care, and providing support, you are providing them with the tools they need to protect themselves and minimizing the risk to others.

ECHO Colorado is offering a free learning community to provide training and assistance that will prepare you with patient talking points, assessment tools, treatment plans and the latest information on pre-exposure prophylaxis, or PrEP. Utilizing web-based, video-conferencing technology, you can use your smart phone, tablet or laptop with a camera to connect to each live session. Sessions will consist of a presentation from a subject matter expert followed by participant presentation of cases with recommendations and discussion among the panel and participants.
