Dr. Anderson discusses the prevalence and incidence of SAVA, addressing the cycle of substance abuse, violence, and declining patient outcomes. Clinicians will learn about the SAVA syndemic and how substance abuse, violence, and depression can detrimentally affect patients’ outcomes.
In part two, Dr. Anderson addresses available screeners, with specific emphasis on those used at the HIV Women’s Clinic. She gives an overview of each of the screening tools and discusses with clinicians how best to initiate the conversation. A system to link patients to support networks is established, and Dr. Anderson expresses the importance of prompt, sensitive screening.

Women with HIV are at significant risk for interpersonal violence and substance abuse.
The SAVA syndemic (substance abuse, violence, and HIV/AIDs) imposes additional burden on an already vulnerable population. Women afflicted with SAVA have significantly lower adherence to their HIV medication and reduced viral suppression.
But they’re being missed by their HIV clinicians, for one simple reason: they do not know.
You are on the frontlines. Now is the time for you to take action against SAVA.
You can help. Tune in to ODM: Finding the Invisible Patient with Jean Anderson, MD. Learn how to:
