Is the Public Art Programme in the Ethekwini District, Kwazulu-Natal, Patient-Centred?

The South African public antiretroviral therapy (ART) programme was rolled out in 2004 and to date constitutes one of the largest ART programmes globally [1,2]. The programme has been hailed by many as a success due to the reduction in mortality and morbidity rates [3,4]. However, the success of any ART programme is dependent on consistent, effective supply and delivery of antiretrovirals (ARVs); a wide variety of drug options; efficient and effective staff, facility and administration; continuously improved diagnostics and technological advancement providing high-quality, easily accessible, service driven and comprehensive patient-centred care [5].
