HIV/AIDS for Healthcare Professionals
Hours: 2.00
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates more than 1 million people 13 years of age and older are living with HIV infection in the U.S., including nearly 162,500 who are unaware they are infected. Some licensure boards require continuing education that addresses human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS). This course sets the stage for addressing those requirements in the context of the history of the infection in this country, risk factors for infection, testing, and strategies for preventing transmission. In addition, the prevention of opportunistic infections and community resources available to patients are discussed.
The goal of this course is to equip healthcare professionals in the acute care setting with knowledge of the care of patients with, and issues surrounding, HIV/AIDS.
