Kichigili. This Means Testing. IMPORTANCE OF FAMILIES TO BE TESTED.What are the benefits of Couples HIV Testing? Couples HIV Testing allows people to be tested for HIV with their partners. The benefits of testing together include: • your partner(s) may provide emotional support and ease fears you may have about HIV testing; • partners can talk about sex and other HIV risks and make plans, with the support of a counsellor, to reduce risk of HIV as a couple; • it provides a space for partners to disclose their HIV status to each other; • because HIV risk discussion is focused on the present and the future rather than the past, it can ease tension; and avoid blame to create a safe place for dealing with difficult issues; • HIV prevention can be tailored based on the HIV results of both/all partners - if one or more partners test HIV positive, decisions about how and when to access HIV care and treatment can be made together; • partners hear information together, which can improve their understanding of the information presented. 2
