00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:02.920
<v ->A typical day for me would be working.</v>

2
00:00:02.920 --> 00:00:07.700
I get up at 5:30 in the morning and get ready for work.

3
00:00:07.700 --> 00:00:11.900
It takes me usually maybe an hour and 10 minutes

4
00:00:11.900 --> 00:00:14.873
because of the traffic situation where I live.

5
00:00:16.820 --> 00:00:20.500
On certain days, I'm in the city.

6
00:00:20.500 --> 00:00:23.410
Certain days I may be in the suburbs.

7
00:00:23.410 --> 00:00:25.919
Being a patient advocate with the company

8
00:00:25.919 --> 00:00:26.940
that I work for.

9
00:00:26.940 --> 00:00:30.593
I'm the HIV Patient Advocate for the entire company.

10
00:00:31.450 --> 00:00:33.423
We have quite a few clinics.

11
00:00:34.350 --> 00:00:36.200
When someone tests positive,

12
00:00:36.200 --> 00:00:37.950
then I would go out to that clinic.

13
00:00:39.010 --> 00:00:40.580
I wouldn't say counsel them,

14
00:00:40.580 --> 00:00:44.680
but do a report, meet the client,

15
00:00:44.680 --> 00:00:47.083
and make sure they get into case management.

16
00:00:48.850 --> 00:00:52.250
It's a full day, eight hours a day.

17
00:00:52.250 --> 00:00:55.590
On some days, when the eight hours is over with,

18
00:00:55.590 --> 00:00:58.423
some days I have other medical appointments to make.
