French term or phrase: clubs d’observance

Here's the sentence: Par contre elle trouve très difficile d’accéder aux clubs d’observance

Would you say HIV monitoring units? Or is there a more specific term? Perhaps clubs do exist?

Many thanks,

Lilly

adherence clubs

https://papyrus.bib.umontreal.ca/jspui/bitstream/1866/2892/4...
A group approach to adherence is
common in the NGO sector in Burkina Faso, often referred to as “clubs
d’observance” (adherence clubs). In Mali, where the other half of the ATARAO
project is carried out, patients receive group adherence counselling prior to treatment
initiation at certain centres (M.Sicotte, personal communication, July 21, 2008).

En sortant du centre, les anciens pensionnaires participent aux activités de prise en charge communautaire de lassociation clubs dobservance, entretiens individualisés, éducation thérapeutique -- pour maintenir ou renforcer le suivi auprès des bénéficiaires. Les anciens pensionnaires reçoivent des vivres, condition importante pour la poursuite des traitements.

When they leave the centre, former residents participate in the associations community care activities (compliance clubs, individual meetings, therapeutic patient education, etc.) to continue or strengthen follow-up care for residents. Former residents also receive meals, which is a critical component of the continuation of their treatments.

Reference: compliance vs concordance vs adherence

Reference information:
"Of course patients will continue to manifest poor adherence to treatment so long as some doctors maintain the attitude that patients should do as we tell them, implicit in the persistent use of [the term] compliance, even in editorials in the BMJ."

--quote from letter from Lask in the first BMJ reference cited below, which also uses the term adherence. A more general discussion of compliance vs concordance in the second reference.

To cope with the ever increasing number of patients and with the goal of reaching 15,000 people by 2010, MSF focused on delivering HIV services in new decentralized health centers using a nurse-based model of care, improving clinic organization and triage of patients, re-defining staff roles and training. MSF also launched new strategies to address the challenges of long-term adherence to ART, including creating ‘adherence clubs’ for stable patients on ART for at least 18 months with no complications.

Adherence Versus Compliance

The terms "adherence" and "compliance" are often used interchangeably. "Compliance" had traditionally been used to describe a patient's ability to take medications as prescribed, but recently this term has fallen into disfavor. Some have suggested that compliance connotes a paternalistic relationship between the physician and patient and that the noncompliant patient performs deviant behavior or exhibits weakness of character. "Adherence" better represents the more complex web among patient, provider, and medication and reflects the fact that following a medication regimen is not necessarily a simple choice.
