What is HIV Case Management?
We define Case Management as “meeting people where they are at.” HIV Case Management clients will work one on one with our HIV Case Managers Brian and Paige to help obtain and maintain free or affordable health insurance, HIV specialists, and other medical or mental health providers. The case manager will also work with clients to coordinate and access housing supports, financial benefits, and other services and resources available to support people living with HIV/AIDS. We're here to talk about any challenges you may face. Our goal is to help you access all the available resources and supports you need to thrive based on what you want and decide for yourself.
What other services are available to Case Management clients?
Wednesday Community Lunches
We offer lunches for clients every Wednesday, most often with guest speakers on topics such as health and nutrition, living well with HIV/AIDS, housing, and community resources.
Nurse Educators – Our on-staff Nurse Educator is available to work with clients on education regarding health and nutrition, medications and adherence, and all aspects of treatment.
Support Groups – Clients looking to spend time with their peers and receive support and education in a safe and secure setting can take advantage of our monthly support groups. Support groups are facilitated by NSHP staff and include a meal as part of our nutrition program. Support groups include:
Nutrition Program – With support from the Open Door, North Shore Health Project can provide clients with emergency groceries, congregate meals, nutritional speakers, and healthy cooking demos.
Emergency Financial Support - We will help you apply for any financial assistance available for help with rent, utilities, food, etc.
Arts & Crafts - Making art alone or with a group can be fun and therapeutic at the same time. We have numerous supplies for arts and crafts for groups and individuals to work on small and large scale pieces like our Interwoven project. Many of our talented clients and staff are happy to teach others how to crochet, craft, paint, and make jewelry.
