Professional nursing education's response to the HIV/AIDS pandemic.
Nurse educators have a responsibility to ensure that nursing students learn to respond to the healthcare needs of society even if those needs are evolving as the student's education is occurring. This paper examines the issues and challenges the HIV/AIDS epidemic presents to nurse educators. It then explores ways in which nursing education programs have responded to these challenges and develops a balanced discussion of these responses.
