Quality of Life for people living with HIV
The Albion Centre in Sydney NSW is running a research study into the factors which impact the Quality of Life for people living with HIV, and how this might impact engagement in medical care. They are interested in understanding what impacts Quality of Life, to better inform standards of care for all people living with HIV.
They are also interested in understanding how people living with HIV who report a high Quality of Life compare to people living with HIV who report a low Quality of Life, might have experienced the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, and whether this compares to their experiences of the AIDS epidemic in the 1980’s/1990’s. Finally, they are interested in expanding reporting requirements for ‘treatment success’ beyond viral load alone to include Quality of Life markers.
You are eligible if
- you are living with HIV,

- have sufficient English language and comprehension skills, and
