Multimorbidity with HIV: Views of Community-Based People Living with HIV and Other Chronic Conditions

People living with HIV (PLWH) experience an increase in chronic conditions with aging, but little is known about experiences of living with multimorbidity with HIV. Because early palliative care services may improve well-being for individuals with multimorbidity, we planned to test an intervention to provide these services to community-dwelling PLWH with other chronic conditions. To tailor our intervention to the target population, we conducted 4 focus groups (n = 22) that elicited health-related needs, experiences, and views regarding palliative and other health services.
