Nursing Care of Patients with HIV/AIDS

March 2008 — Since the inception of the epidemic, nurses have played a crucial role in caring for individuals infected with HIV. Especially in resource-limited settings, nurses have assumed multiple responsibilities in HIV care and treatment, both in traditional nursing roles and new areas. FHI 360 published Nursing Care of Patients with HIV/AIDS, a package of training materials for nurses who care for patients with HIV/AIDS, to provide nurses in resource-limited areas with evidence-based knowledge they can use to deliver safe, effective care to their patients. The materials include a facilitator’s guide with PowerPoint slides and a participant’s guide.
