Abstract
BACKGROUND: Older people living with human immunodeficiency virus (OPLWHIV) on antiretroviral therapy are aging and face an increased risk of non-communicable diseases. The burden is costly and demands sustainable care for HIV comorbidity. The aim is to understand the experiences of OPLWHIV comorbidity attending healthcare services. METHODS: The 28 reviewed articles focused on experiences of OPLWHIV comorbidity attending healthcare services. The scoping review employed content analysis. A literature search was conducted on databases like PubMed, EBSCOhost, Google Scholar, and Subnet. Articles were restricted to English and published between 2013 and 2024. The study population included 50-85 years old. RESULTS: OPLWHIV comorbidity needs standardized, coordinated, and resourced healthcare services because of the unique difficulties of older adults. CONCLUSIONS: OPLWHIV comorbidity experienced difficulties accessing coordinated services addressing complex pharmacoeconomics and psycho-social issues in resourced primary health care institutions, with promotive and preventive care to strengthen the healthcare system.
