What the study is about
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if use of the PEPPI software can improve pharmacist-provided HIV prevention (PEP/PrEP) services. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Does the PEPPI software make it easier for pharmacists to provide PEP/PrEP services in their pharmacy?
- Does the PEPPI software make it easier for patients to access PEP/PrEP?
Researchers will compare pharmacists' implementation and patients' access when using the PEPPI software and when not using the PEPPI software to see if the software improves implementation and access.
Participants will include pharmacists and patients. Pharmacists will be asked to provide PEP/PrEP services as normal while using the PEPPI software. Patients will be asked to receive PEP/PrEP services from a pharmacist as normal, while using the PEPPI software.
Being studied: PEPPI Pharmacies
Conditions: HIV Prevention; HIV Pre-exposure Prophylaxis; Access and Linkage to Healthcare; Technology Use
