The aim of this e-module is to enhance knowledge about HIV care among rehabilitation professionals so they may better address the needs of people living with HIV. Development of this document involved a multi-staged and interdisciplinary process, led by realize. Notable characteristics of the e-module include the comprehensive review and incorporation of current best evidence on HIV and rehabilitation and the interdisciplinary approach to its development.

The E-Module for Evidence-Informed HIV Rehabilitation is divided into seven chapters.

Chapter 2 provides an overview of best practices in rehabilitation.

Chapter 3 describes the symptoms and impairments associated with HIV and interventions to address them.

Chapter 4 provides an overview of the systemic impacts of HIV.

Chapter 5 is dedicated to pediatrics.

Chapter 6 provides an overview of interventions (both pharmacological and non-pharmacological) including exercise, modalities, vocational rehabilitation, and self-management.

Chapter 7 describes issues related to HIV and rehabilitation such as access to care, advocacy, research priorities, and provides additional resources on national rehabilitation and consumer organizations.

Chapter 8 includes six case studies that encourage integration of the e-module content and problem-solving around practical scenarios that rehabilitation professionals may face in clinical practice.

Red flags throughout the e-module highlight important clinical symptoms that indicate the need for immediate referral to a physician.
