As one of the nation's worst epidemics, HIV health services require a spectrum of activities designed to assess the infected population and provide comprehensive life-saving care and treatment. Needs assessment, service analysis and quality outcome evaluation are among the critical studies that HIV/AIDS Organizations need to address.
