简要总结
The purpose of this trial is to test whether, compared to the normal Standard of Care at primary health care clinics, a home-based counseling intervention ( the 'Amagugu' Counseling Intervention), will increase the number of HIV-infected mothers who are able to disclose their own HIV status to their primary school-aged children. The investigators also wish to examine whether the intervention improves the quality of the maternal-child relationship, emotional and well-being of the child and social support.
