Guidance for Nurse Prescription and Management of Antiretroviral Therapy provides a roadmap for conceptualizing and initiating the expansion of the nursing scope of practice to include ART prescription and management. It describes processes that HIV program implementers can use to consider the need for, and implications of, nurse-prescribed and nurse-managed ART in resource constrained settings. It also considers additional resources that may be necessary to introduce the new practice to current healthcare facilities.
Guidance for Nurse Prescription and Management of Antiretroviral Therapy is the first in a new series called New Directions in Healthcare for Resource-Limited Settings. FHI recognizes that health science and quality healthcare is constantly evolving, and is dedicated to helping health planners and implementers in resource-limited settings access the most current knowledge and strategic approaches to most benefit the caregivers and recipients.
