This book was released on 2019 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this study was to identify the attitudes of nursing students in Alabama toward people living with the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) or Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), and then further explore how specific attitudes impact students' willingness to care for people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWH). In addition, influence on attitudes based on differences in socio-demographic characteristics were investigated. Exploration into students' perceptions regarding how close others would view them if they were to care for PLWH, and students' perceptions of how their communities, religion, and nursing education have influenced their attitudes were also performed. A sequential mixed methods study examined the attitudes of senior level students (n=36) from one Baccalaureate of Science in Nursing (BSN) and three Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) programs. Students completed the HIV/AIDS Provider Stigma Inventory (HAPSI) using Awareness and Acceptance scales to identify sigma related tendencies, and a socio-demographic questionnaire via online survey. Findings were further explored using individual semi-structured telephone interviews with students (n=9) who completed the online survey. Descriptive statistics and themes suggest that nursing students in Alabama carry generally positive attitudes and a willingness to care for PLWH, and the attitudes of close others have no influence on their own attitudes or willingness to care for this population. However, underlying stigmas were found to be associated with lifestyle factors associated with HIV transmission. There were significant differences found between White and non-White nursing students on both Acceptance and overall HAPSI scale scores, indicating more stigmatizing tendencies toward PLWH among white students. There were differences in Awareness scores between male and female nursing students, with males scoring higher indicating more stigma related tendencies. Themes revealed through interviews suggest that nursing students have concerns about lacking HIV knowledge and experience in caring for PLWH. However, students revealed that education within their respective nursing programs had increased some HIV knowledge. Both nursing education and religious faith had influence on students' compassionate attitudes toward caring for PLWH, despite underlying stigma. Theory of Reasoned Action provided a frame work for understanding attitudes and willingness to care, and how these attitudes are influenced by students' behavioral beliefs and normative beliefs. Findings revealed in this study may assist nurse educators in developing curriculum which focuses on both psychosocial and physical aspects of caring for PLWH.

Book excerpt: Academic Paper from the year 2017 in the subject Pedagogy - Job Education, Occupational Training, Further Education, grade: 100, University of Central Florida (School of Nursing), language: English, abstract: HIV/AIDS is a very present pandemic and has claimed the lives of more than 35 million people worldwide. Persons living with HIV/AIDS often require health care during the course of their disease and in an array of healthcare settings. Nurses are often the frontrunners of patient care and it is essential that care is provided without bias, stigma or poor attitudes towards the patient. Although some countries offer HIV/AIDS education to student nurses, few have mandatory and standardized HIV/AIDS education. This review includes four studies that compare the effectiveness of HIV/AIDS education on stigmas and attitudes towards PLWHA. In consideration of the growing numbers of PLWHA, nursing students may benefit from generalized education to address attitudes and stigmas towards any patient, not just the PLWHA.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: When HIV-AIDS emerged in the United States, many people were clueless as to what the disease was, how individuals transmitted it, and why it was so deadly. Once established that it was transmitted via bodily fluids, HIV, blood, and sexual fluids, patients were stigmatized when receiving medical care-a situation leading to many individuals going from HIV to AIDS more rapidly because they avoided medical care. This study explored factors associated with the stigmatization of people with HIV. Nonparametric correlations were used to determine how knowledge of HIV and knowing someone and having cared for someone with HIV correlated with the willingness of graduate nursing students to care for people living with HIV-AIDS (PLWHA). The data showed that students, irrespective of personally knowing or having a patient with HIV, were willing to care for PLWHA. This finding demonstrated that the factors explored contributed but were not key to stigmatization.

This book was released on 2006 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study uses a descriptive, comparative design to examine, describe, and compare HIV knowledge and attitudes towards caring for HIV/AIDS patients among senior baccalaureate nursing students in the United States of America and Thailand. Either the English or the Thai version of HIV Knowledge Questionnaire (HIV-KQ 45), AIDS Attitude Scale (AAS), and the Caring Survey were administered. Participants of this study come from convenience samples from the schools of nursing at the four universities: 49 U.S senior nursing students at New York University, 50 U.S. senior nursing students at University of Missouri-Columbia, 50 Thai senior nursing students at Chiang-Mai University, and 55 Thai senior nursing students at Prince of Songkla University. The key findings identified that U.S. students, regardless of HIV/AIDS prevalence area, had significantly greater HIV/AIDS knowledge than Thai students. Only the U.S. students practicing in the high HIV/AIDS prevalence area had significantly better attitude and caring scores compared to Thai students who [are] also practicing in the high HIV/AIDS prevalence area.

This book was released on 1990 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The hypothesis of this study stated that student nurses who participate in an educational program on AIDS will have a more positive attitude towards AIDS patients. The sample was composed of 22 student nurses enrolled in a baccalaureate nursing program in two different colleges. Nursing students' attitudes towards AIDS patients were measured by Barrick's "Unwillingness to Care for AIDS Patients Instrument." The population studied consisted of two groups: the experimental group, who had an educational course in AIDS and the control group, who did not. The t-test scores obtained from these two groups were found to be statistically significant at the 2.5045 level. The results of this study showed that knowledge acquisition about AIDS was related to student nurses having a more positive attitude towards AIDS patients. These results suggest a need for education about AIDS in nursing students as knowledge may result in the change of attitudes. It is the recommendation of this researcher that further research be done on this subject with a larger sample.
