A team effort

The DSOP team consists of disease intervention specialists, community service aids, community educators, social workers, congenital syphilis specialists, and representatives of other programs (Disease Surveillance, Social Determinates of Health, Ending the HIV Epidemic, Rethink Positive, Project HIP and Data to Care).

The team is also the only team working directly with the only tuberculosis clinic in Tarrant County.

   

Mobile testing operations

The DSOP team can set up testing sites at one or more locations, allowing the department to go to county areas where no current clinics are available and/or the clients have limited transportation options.
