title: Nursing, HIV & AIDS: AVERT funded project.
abstract: October 1991 saw the start of a two-year national investigation into the nursing care and treatment of people with HIV/AIDS. The project is based in the Daphne Heald Research Unit at the Royal College of Nursing and is funded by the AIDS Education and Research Trust (AVERT). The aim is to gather information on current approaches to nursing care and treatment at a number of centres around the country, and to identify some of the main issues that are important to nurses undertaking this work. This article is based on preliminary reading and discussions with nurses, and makes some general points about the nursing profession's response to HIV/AIDS.
