HIV-Associated Brain Impairment

Mildmay specialises in the treatment of HIV-Associated Neurocognitive Disorder, or HAND, impairment caused by HIV entering and affecting the brain.

This is a form of severe dementia that Mildmay is able to curtail or even reverse in the majority of our patients, enabling them to return to some form of independent living.

People with HAND often display symptoms that are very similar to dementia, such as memory loss, confusion, loss of a sense of self, difficulty in walking, speaking or carrying out everyday tasks.

Mildmay’s specialised treatment, care and rehabilitation include highly skilled medical and nursing care, treatment, rehabilitation and a combined range of therapies.
