ICAP at Columbia University developed this counseling cue cards flipchart with support from the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), to support a range of providers (trained counselors, lay counselors, peer educators, expert clients, mother mentors, doctors, nurses, pharmacists, community health workers, and others) who work with pregnant women living with HIV and their families.
This set of cue cards is for countries and programs offering lifelong antiretroviral therapy (ART) to all pregnant and breast feeding women (Option B+). They can be further adapted to reflect national PMTCT and pediatric care and treatment guidelines, as well as the specific clinic, community, and cultural contexts in which they are used. Each of the cards focuses on a specific topic important to the care and support of pregnant women living with HIV, their children, and families across the PMTCT continuum of care. Providers may use the cue cards as job aids and reminders of key information to cover during initial post-test and ongoing counseling sessions with pregnant women and newly delivered mothers, their partners, family members, and supporters.
