PrEPARE-SCALE: Scaling up Integrated PrEP Delivery in Kenyan Maternal and Child Health Clinics

PrEPARE-SCALE: Scaling up Integrated PrEP Delivery in Kenyan Maternal and Child Health Clinics for Pregnant and Postpartum Women

This project aims to develop a community of practice; then test a combination of community of practice, quality improvement, and a training toolkit, to enhance implementation and clinical outcomes; and identify patterns attributes associated with successful implementation.

Aim 1: To develop and determine the impact of a Community of Practice (CoP) on stakeholder and healthcare worker engagement and knowledge of integrated pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) delivery.

Aim 2: To determine the impact of a 3-component scale-up package on implementation outcomes and PrEP patient outcomes among pregnant and postpartum populations.

Aim 2a: To determine the impact of the scale-up package on PrEP implementation outcomes, including reach, service penetration, adoption (primary outcomes), and PrEP fidelity and maintenance (secondary outcomes).

Aim 2b: To determine the impact of the scale-up package on PrEP patient outcomes, including PrEP initiation and continuation.

Aim 3: To identify difference-making bundles of facility- and regional-level attributes and implementation processes that influence reach, fidelity implementation, and maintenance.
