J2: J2 - Hepatitis on the Internet: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly | |||
| In an era of information overload, the ability to design and identify accurate and appropriate messages and information on viral hepatitis can be a challenge. This workshop will highlight high quality reliable internet resources available to consumers and providers and describe types of misinformation most likely to be accessed by parents searching for hepatitis B information. | |||
| Learning Objectives: B. Identify specific intervention strategies that address the needs of individuals in high-risk groups including, but not limited to, infants born to HBsAg-positive mothers, clients engaged in injection drug use (IDU)/substance abuse, clients in STD/HIV clinics, men who have sex with men, homeless populations, and inmates in correctional settings.
E. Identify and access communication, education, and training needs and available resources for viral hepatitis prevention and control; evaluate the effectiveness of education and training methods.
