HIV Community Team is a multidisciplinary outreach team providing confidential
health care services for people living with or closely affected by HIV across the South
Eastern Sydney and Illawarra Shoalhaven Local Health Districts. These Local
Health Districts comprises 13 local government areas including: Botany,
Hurstville, Kiama, Kogarah, Randwick, Rockdale, Shellharbour, Shoalhaven,

People living with HIV (PLHIV) may experience a range of acute or chronic health
problems and require a number of different services to manage these needs.
Challenges encountered may include issues with medication, mental health,
nutrition, housing and finances. The HIV Community Team can also assist in
coordinating services.
The HIV Community team can provide advocacy and support around these issues and
will work in partnership with other agencies and services to improve the quality
of care for clients referred to our service.
