The Rational Pharmaceutical Management Plus (RPM Plus) Program is collaborating with USAID/South Africa through the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief to assist the Government of South Africa in strengthening systems for pharmaceutical management in support of HIV/AIDS scale-up activities. Under this effort, RPM Plus assists in national-, regional-, and facility-level capacity development for the delivery of prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) and antiretroviral therapy (ART) services, and in ensuring access to and rational use of basic PMTCT/ART medicines and other health supplies through various interventions including—
- Strengthening the policy and legal framework and the national pharmaceutical management support systems for HIV/AIDS-related pharmaceuticals and commodities
- Improving information management systems for HIV/AIDS-related pharmaceuticals and commodities at the institutional and district levels
- Strengthening the rational use of HIV/AIDS-related pharmaceuticals and the availability of comprehensive pharmaceutical care in treatment facilities in support of the provision of PMTCT and ART services
