Challenges in achieving the UNAIDS 95-95-95 targets: evaluation of the antiretroviral therapy program among adult HIV/AIDS patients at Woldia General Hospital, Northeast Ethiopia

The overall level of program implementation was very good. However, patient satisfaction did not meet the national target of 85%, and adherence to national guidelines was minimal. Essential supplies such as HIV test kits, Plumpy'Nut, viral load tests, and medications for opportunistic infections were not consistently available. Additionally, most laboratory tests were not conducted in accordance with the guidelines. Factors associated with patient satisfaction included the ability to disclose HIV status and waiting times of under 30 min.

Abstract

The overall level of program implementation was very good. However, patient satisfaction did not meet the national target of 85%, and adherence to national guidelines was minimal. Essential supplies such as HIV test kits, Plumpy'Nut, viral load tests, and medications for opportunistic infections were not consistently available. Additionally, most laboratory tests were not conducted in accordance with the guidelines. Factors associated with patient satisfaction included the ability to disclose HIV status and waiting times of under 30 min.
