Because of the rapid changes in HIV/AIDS technology and treatment, it is imperative that people living with HIV/AIDS have access to specialized medical care. Studies have proven that people with HIV who receive specialized health care have a better quality of life and live longer.

The Alliance has established a Rural Health Care Clinic to provide people in northwest Pennsylvania with specialized HIV/AIDS health care services. The Alliance has contracted with HIV/AIDS medical specialists to travel throughout the region to provide medical care to patients. The medical specialists are available to local primary care physicians for consultation.

The Alliance has a full-time nurse manager to assess health status and coordinate patient care by phone and in a clinical setting. Clinic services are free and confidential.
