Purpose: We assessed the sensibility, utility, and implementation considerations of the Short-Form HIV Disability Questionnaire (SF-HDQ) in community-based settings. Methods: We conducted a mixed-methods study with adults living with HIV and community providers in seven community sites in Canada. We administered the SF-HDQ, a sensibility questionnaire and conducted semi-structured interviews. The SF-HDQ was sensible if median scores were ≥5/7(adults living with HIV) and ≥4/7(community providers) for ≥80% of the sensibility questionnaire items. Qualitative interview data were analyzed using content analysis. Results: Median sensibility scores were ≥5 for adults living with HIV (n = 44) and ≥4 for community providers (n = 10) for 95% and 100% of items, respectively. The SF-HDQ is comprehensive, represented disability, captured its episodic nature, and was easy to complete. Community utility included: facilitating communication and engagement with community; taking a snapshot of disability and tracking changes over time; guiding referrals; fostering self-reflection; and informing community programs. Considerations for implementation included flexible, person-centered approaches to mode and processes of administration, and communicating scores based on personal preferences among persons living with HIV. Conclusion: The SF-HDQ possesses sensibility and utility for use in community-based settings.
