Surveys, studies and trials

Sometimes there may be a member of staff 'hovering' in the waiting area with a survey. Feel free to say no, but it's a way to pass the time and support the clinic in its work.

If you are receiving HIV treatments/ therapies, you may be asked to take part in a clinical trial or survey (especially if you are newly diagnosed).

Before you make any decision you need to understand the purpose of the survey/ trial etc; what is involved; your rights; and whether there are any dangers or risks. If you have difficulty in understanding what is being asked of you, ask that the questions or information are rephrased or re-explained. You should also be given time to think about what has been said before you make any decision.
