What to expect:
We understand that going through the process of testing for HIV and hepatitis can be stressful and cause some anxiety. We are here to help! NAN provides a safe and confidential setting for you to get all of your questions answered. The testing and counseling session takes about 25 minutes. It will begin by you sharing some background information with one of our certified professional HIV and hepatitis prevention counselors.
Your counselor will conduct a HIV and hepatitis risk assessment, so that you may identify and evaluate your risks of possible exposure. After this, the actual test will be administered. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, NAN offers the Rapid HIV test, which consists of a finger stick to draw a very small amount of blood. Results from this test are available after 20 minutes. On Mondays and Wednesdays testing is available by appointment only. All of NAN’s testing and counseling services are free and available to the public.
Free services include:
- Rapid HIV testing
- Hepatitis C testing
- Vaccination for Hepatitis A and B
- Sexually Transmitted Infection testing (Syphilis, Gonorrhea and Chlamydia)
- Referrals for follow-up care and testing
- Risk assessments and reduction strategies
