  • "As key members of the health care team, nurses at all levels must work with communities and other health professionals to prevent the spread of HIV infection. Interventions are required in the areas of human resources management, community development, and the provision of health and human services. Work in this area is associated, however, with a range of complex social, ethical, legal, and technical problems that require a thorough knowledge of the basic concepts of HIV/AIDS. This booklet was prepared by the World Health Organization's Regional Office for the Western Pacific to provide nurses with background information and to create a foundation for the further development of professional skills in the areas of HIV prevention and clinical care. It covers basic facts about HIV and AIDS, the clinical profile of HIV infection, HIV transmission, and HIV screening. A glossary of terms used in this overview is included to facilitate comprehension. This is the first in a series of booklets that comprise the HIV/AIDS Reference Library for Nurses."
