department of the Prince William-Manassas Adult De- tention Center abides by one over-riding mission:It always strives toprovide a community standard ofcare for its inmate population.  \nAnd to accomplish that goal,the department is constantly lookingoutward,seeking advice,counseland answers from the communityoutside the Virginia jail.  \nThe facility contracts with aprimary care physician who subcon-tracts with another physician andthe two doctors,in turn,work as ateam,providing a high level of carefor the inmate population.  \nOne of the infectious disease   \nIt also contracts with a dentistand a psychiatrist who visit the fa-cility on a weekly basis.  \nBut the department's most in-novative—and perhaps its most ef-fective strategy—involves the careand treatment of HIV and AIDS.  \nIn the past few years,the de-partment has established and main-tained an ongoing relationship withtwo infectious disease doctors whooversee and manage the facility'sHIV/AIDS cases,providing an in-valuable service to the facility'shealth care staff and the detaineeswho reside there.  \ndoctors,Abe Macher,MD,worksfor the Public Health Service;theother,David Wheeler,MD,is em-ployed by a local health care sys-tem.  \nThe two doctors conduct regu-lar consultations with the depart-ment's nurses and doctors,review-ing inmate charts,for example,anddetermining appropriate treatmentregimens.  \nThe department's health careproviders consult with Dr.Macherover the phone,asking him abouttreatment regimens and whetherthey should initiate or changetreatments based on a patient's CD-4 level or viral load counts.  \nThey also consult with Dr.Ma-cher about patients who are nonad-herent,faxing him informationabout a particular patient so he candetermine the best course of action.This is done in a confidential man-ner without violating the patient'sconfidentiality.  \n\"Dr.Macher has the results ofall their lab work,the medicationsthey are on and the side effects theyare experiencing,”explains DebbieKibble,one of the nurses at the fa-cility.\"He can make a recommen-dation to change medications or add to the existing regimens.”  \nKibble says working with Dr.Macher has been an\"incrediblelearning experience.”“He will talkto me for an hour about what Ishould do,what I should look forand what the numbers mean,\"shesays.\"He also gives me verificationof what I am doing.”  \nThe other physician,  Dr.Wheeler,comes into the facility andworks directly with other physiciansand nurses,overseeing the patient'sexamination and exploring treat-ment options with the patient andthe attending health care providers.The benefit to patients with HIV isself-evident.  \nOne female offender who cameinto the facility early last year wasreeling from her HIV disease,suf-fering from a rising viral load and adrop in her CD-4 counts.Dr.Wheeler changed the woman'smedication regimen,prompting apronounced decrease in her viralload and an increase in her CD-4levels,thereby slowing the progres-sion of her disease.  \n“They do an excellent job,”says the woman.“They are right ontop of my disease.\"  \nThe woman has regular accessto the two medical doctors who visitthe f","cbCaiol0FUdS8szJ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiol0FUdS8szJ","pdf",2640818,"English","# Virginia Jail Looks To Community For Help In Providing Inmate Health Care\n##
