Improving the health of vulnerable communities and changing lives is at the heart of what we do and who we are.
In our recent paper (1) we reported hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatment outcomes among people attending a co-located mental health and alcohol and other drug service. Of 84 people who were HCV RNA positive, 70 (83%) commenced treatment with approximately two-thirds (n=47, 67%) prescribed treatment by a general or nurse practitioner. Among 48 (69%) who had a sustained virological response (SVR) test, all were cured.
To create and translate knowledge into better health, so no-one is left behind.
