Selian AIDS Control Program The AIDS epidemic is devastating Tanzania. Selian has been responding to the epidemic since 1986 and the effort has grown dramatically in the past few years. The program now consists of a wide range of comprehensive services and preventive activities. The individual components of the program include: 1. AIDS Education and Awareness Raising: These efforts have continued to expand into new areas with concentration on the training of local church leaders, school educators, peer groups, traditional leaders and high risk groups within the community. 2. Voluntary Counseling and Testing (VCT): VCT is now available at three Selian sites. The largest is at the Arusha Town Clinic, second is Selian Hospital in Ngaramtoni, and the third is in the Health Center at Mto Wa Mbu. These clinics provide VCT to over 1000 patients per month. 3. Prevention of Maternal to Child Transmission of HIV (PMTCT): This program began in 2002 and has expanded in all subsequent years. Over ninety percent of women in the antenatal clinics agree to be tested for HIV. HIV-positive rates are fortunately low with about 13% testing positive and requiring treatment for PMTCT. 4. Medical Care and ARV Treatment for HIV Patients: In 2003 Selian began treating AIDS patients at the Arusha Town Clinic with anti-retroviral drugs (ARVs). The Selian ARV clinics began providing free ARVs in 2004 with funding from USAID and the Clinton Foundation. The clinics care for over 5000 patients living with AIDS. 5. Home Based Care and Hospice Care: Selian continues to reach out into the community of patients with AIDS and other diseases to provide home based care, training for family members in home care, and to provide for end of life hospice care in the home. The team ministers to over 1000 patients in their homes. To see a hospice slideshow, click here. 7. Support of People Living with HIV/AIDS:Selian continues to be the patron to and a primary supporter of the support group known as ALPHA+ or Arusha Living Positively with HIV/AIDS. This is the largest support group in Arusha and it regularly meets at Selian's Uzima (Wholeness) Center in Arusha. Many members participate in community AIDS education programs. Hospice and Palliative Care The ministry of hospice care continues to expand. The hospice program began in 1999 and was the first hospice in Tanzania. The program is home-based and the hospice team does home visiting to provide palliative and spiritual care to those who are terminally ill. Most hospice patients have AIDS, advanced cancer or terminal cardiac disease. The program has expanded into many surrounding villages and congregations where volunteers are being trained to provide hospice care to those in need in their communities. In addition to the hospital staff and clergy, there are 130 lay volunteers who have been trained in home hospice care. The hospice team was able to invite other church hospitals from Northern Tanzania to attend an introductory workshop on hospice care in 2002. This then gave rise to Selian Hospice becoming a training center for other hospitals. The training expanded to include all of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Tanzania hospitals under the direction of Dr. Kristopher Hartwig.
