First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new tool to help people in emergency departments and urgent care start and continue taking PrEP, a daily pill that prevents HIV. About 120 people who are eligible for PrEP will use the tool, which is designed to address their medical and social needs. The goal is to see if the tool helps more people stick with PrEP over time.
