Psychosocial and neuropsychiatric care.
Psychosocial problems of persons with HIV disease require knowledge and skill in psychosocial assessment, suicide risk assessment, crisis intervention and various other therapeutic modalities, provision of social and community resources, and spiritual care. Neuropsychiatric problems require knowledge and skill in neurologic, cognitive, and behavioral assessment and supportive care. Families and partners have needs commensurate with those of the person with HIV disease.
