The 58 facilities of KRIPA, spread over 11 states in India are manned by peers and professionals in the field of CD and HIV-AIDS care. The activities conducted at these facilities are personnel intensive, and hence adequacy of numbers is essential for smooth functioning. The rapid changes in available information and techniques in care, require periodic upgrading of staff abilities. The limits of the problems seen in CD / HIV-AIDS are not yet fully defined, and hence accurate and meticulous documentation is the need at all the centers. |
