HIV Testing and Counseling

HIV testing is offered by HIV/AIDS program professionals at the following locations:

• SRHD Public Health Clinic – anonymous testing is offered to the public (client is never required to submit any identifying information including name). Call (509) 324-1600.
  
• SRHD HIV/AIDS Program office – Room 372, 324-1542
  
• Spokane County jail and juvenile detention (contracted service)
  

We use the Rapid Oral HIV testing method with results for most people in 20 minutes.

Counseling is always provided prior to the test and after the test results are provided. If test results are negative, clients are educated about ways to reduce the risk of contracting HIV. If the test results are positive, clients are referred to SRHD case management and partner notification services.
