title: Sensitive care: choices and considerations.
abstract: Skilled nursing facilities are ideal settings for Sensitive Care Units to provide appropriate care to clients suffering from end-stage conditions. The need is particularly great in areas with a high incidence of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Dedicating a unit or a number of beds to "sensitive care" can improve a facility's bottom line while providing a much-needed service.
