It is not only the drugs that treat, other parameters also come into play such as the well-being of the patient, his emotions, his state of mind. On Saturday, May 26, 2018, we offered twenty-five #enfants and #adolescents_séropositifs followed at CRIPS-TOGO a #sortie_thérapeutique on #Agbodrafo in the Prefecture of the Lakes (30km east of Lomé) in order to get them out of their usual setting, to meet other children sharing the same problem and to allow them to relieve the stress of everyday life.
An opportunity for ten peer educators trained last March to accompany their peers to truly experience their mission, that of psychosocial care of the youngest, but also to know how to share their own stories that will have a positive impact in the lives of young people. This is to enable them to strengthen their ability to express themselves in public and their self-esteem.
Throughout the day on Saturday, May 26, 2018, they engaged in various recreational games including swimming under the watchful eye of a team of four coaches made up of psychologists and nurse members of the CRIPS-Togo staff who also carried out the travel with teenagers.
