HIV/AIDS

FL Dept of Health in Pinellas - Main Contact Information - Phone Available 24 hrs/day


The Florida Department of Health in Pinellas County HIV/AIDS Program has provided patient care services to the HIV/AIDS community for over twelve years. In 1997, we contracted with a local provider to begin a full service HIV/AIDS patient care clinic. Our AIDS patient care clinic is funded through state general revenue funds and Ryan White funds along with the support of a private hospital. The clinic is contracted to provide care to 250 clients but we are presently seeing 800 - 1000 clients. This is a collaborative effort with community support.

Our clinic offers state of the art patient care, HIV counseling and testing, case management, nutritional services, etc. Our Health Department also offers access to ADAP medications and referrals to access Ryan White pharmaceuticals.

Our goal is to prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS and to provide treatment and resources to those who are infected and affected by the epidemic. Our main objectives include increasing the public's knowledge and awareness of HIV/AIDS, promoting HIV testing and providing the very best treatment and care for Pinellas County residents.
