Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Project Wellness is a new intervention that combines the use of culturally-sensitive, video-based education, a general health screening approach, and a community pharmacy setting into one program to improve black African immigrant participation in voluntary HIV testing. The study is divided into three phases: qualitative research; video production; and a feasibility trial. In Phase 1, the investigators will conduct in-depth interviews and focus group discussions with black African participants to obtain insights on overlapping and resonating themes that will help increase participation in HIV testing among black Africans in the Bronx. In Phase 2, data obtained through qualitative work will guide the development of four health education videos. A culturally-tailored educational video on diabetes, hypertension, and HIV will be developed and produced for each gender and in both English and French. In phase 3, the investigators will test the feasibility of a pharmacy-based, culturally-tailored, general health screen that includes rapid HIV testing. The trial will help determine the feasibility of using a computer-based model; recruitment of black Africans in the pharmacies; acceptance of testing; and linking individuals diagnosed with health problems into medical care. A secondary analysis will also determine predictors of refusing to be tested.
