Casta Quemada

Abstract People with severe mental disorders (SMD) face higher hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection risks and lower treatment adherence compared to the general population. Traditional care pathways often fail due to fragmented coordination and patient-related barriers. This study evaluates the feasibility and acceptability of an individualized nurse navigation program (NNP) designed to facilitate adherence to medical appointments and pharmacological treatment in this population.
