Abstract MEETING THE MULTIFACETED NEEDS OF PATIENTS WITH DRUG-RESISTANT TUBERCULOSIS
While TB can have detrimental effects on a person’s health, the social ramifications of such a diagnosis and the treatment process may have devastating implications. Disruptions in a patient’s life facing a chronic and stigmatized disease like DR TB may hinder work or opportunities to earn an income, care for family members, social isolation and lower self-esteem. Although social workers give psycho-social support such as patient and family counselling, support groups, and make referrals to external agencies for ongoing and relevant long-term support, patient material and financial support is often a pressing need. Availability of the disability grant can compensate for income loss, and meet patient material and financial needs. However, the strict qualifying criteria exclude many patients and must be challenged. There is a further need for social workers in all government and NPO agencies to work collaboratively to enhance the journey of the patient as they travel through the healthcare system.
