ANAC's Core Curriculum for HIV/AIDS Nursing

Written by nurses for nurses, this thoroughly revised edition of ANAC's Core Curriculum for HIV/AIDS Nursing highlights the extraordinary improvements in clinical and symptom management in HIV/AIDS over the last 10 years. Containing not only the essential information that every practitioner needs to know (such as taking a medical and social history, physical examination, symptomatic conditions and management, HIV testing, and laboratory and diagnostic evaluation), ANAC's Core Curriculum also covers specialized nursing information such as case management, ethical and legal concerns, infection control, and patient education. Essential for those new to HIV/AIDS care as well as a refresher for those with years of experience in infectious diseases, ANAC's Core Curriculum is a concise, but thorough reference for clinical, symptomatic, and psychosocial management of adults, adolescents, children, and infants at different stages of HIV/AIDS.
