Book The Social Impact of AIDS in the United States

Download or read book The Social Impact of AIDS in the United States written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1993-02-01 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Europe's "Black Death" contributed to the rise of nation states, mercantile economies, and even the Reformation. Will the AIDS epidemic have similar dramatic effects on the social and political landscape of the twenty-first century? This readable volume looks at the impact of AIDS since its emergence and suggests its effects in the next decade, when a million or more Americans will likely die of the disease. The Social Impact of AIDS in the United States addresses some of the most sensitive and controversial issues in the public debate over AIDS. This landmark book explores how AIDS has affected fundamental policies and practices in our major institutions, examining: How America's major religious organizations have dealt with sometimes conflicting values: the imperative of care for the sick versus traditional views of homosexuality and drug use. Hotly debated public health measures, such as HIV antibody testing and screening, tracing of sexual contacts, and quarantine. The potential risk of HIV infection to and from health care workers. How AIDS activists have brought about major change in the way new drugs are brought to the marketplace. The impact of AIDS on community-based organizations, from volunteers caring for individuals to the highly political ACT-UP organization. Coping with HIV infection in prisons. Two case studies shed light on HIV and the family relationship. One reports on some efforts to gain legal recognition for nonmarital relationships, and the other examines foster care programs for newborns with the HIV virus. A case study of New York City details how selected institutions interact to give what may be a picture of AIDS in the future. This clear and comprehensive presentation will be of interest to anyone concerned about AIDS and its impact on the country: health professionals, sociologists, psychologists, advocates for at-risk populations, and interested individuals.

[...] Specific sub-problems to investigate include the level of knowledge of nurses on HIV/AIDS; their sources of information on HIV/AIDS; their attitude towards caring for HIV/AIDS patients; the relationships between the nurses' age, exposure to infected patients, years of nursing experience, and the nurses' The attitude of nurses to HIV/AIDS patients in Nigeria 529 attitude towards HIV/AIDS patients;. [...] Findings The unique function of the nurse is to assist the individual, sick or well, in the performance of those activities which contribute to health, to recovery, or to peaceful death, that would be performed by the patient if the patient had the necessary strength, will or knowledge, and to do this in such a way as to help him gain independence as rapidly as possible. [...] This is similar to Plant and Foster's (1993) study in which the overall pattern of response indicated that the highest level of concern was related to the perceived lack of in-service training, the availability of resources to treat infected patients, the issue of keeping The attitude of nurses to HIV/AIDS patients in Nigeria 535 up with current trends and developments, and the lack of experience. [...] The data on the relationship between the knowledge of HIV/AIDS and the nurses' attitude to HIV/AIDS was not significant.
