Duties: 1ST Project

- Initiated this project from the get go by referral pathways within the 11 districts of KwaZulu Natal.

I worked with Professor Yunus Moosa who is Chief Specialist and Head of Department of Infectious Diseases at the University of KwaZulu Natal, His work focuses on the care of inpatients and outpatients with complex infectious disease issues also his research interests include HIV drug resistance, diagnosis of smear negative tuberculosis and TB drug induced liver injury, that withdrew my attention as Advanced Clinical Care Registered Nurse Researcher.

- The purpose of this exercise was to profile the types of referrals received by King Edward Hospital Adult and Paediatric Infectious Disease (ID) Units. CAPRISA also wanted to determine which institutions were referring and what’s the turnaround time was before the patient can be seen at the tertiary facility.

- After data analysis, I plan to identify gaps in the current system in place by these units as well as the referral system and determine how CAPRISA could assist in making the referral system more efficient and less cumbersome to those clinicians wishing to refer patients.

- A telephonic Booking system was being utilised; whereby any clinician discusses new patients with the consultants prior to the patient being accepted. Patients are then booked by the administrator for the clinic (Infectious Disease Unit). The consultants also provide a consultative service for KZN where they discuss appropriate management and investigations for patients without taking them over. These patients are managed at their District level facilities under the guidance of the IDU team (Infectious Disease Unit). Patients deemed to be complex or severely ill requiring takeover by IDU team, are admitted via the medical intake team to the IDU/ ward.

- All new patients are reviewed by the consultant on their first visit. Prof Moosa/Dr Archary (Paeds Specialist) determines the management plan and other clinicians can review follow up patients in consultation with the Prof. & Dr Archary.
