title: Community HIV/AIDS teams.
abstract: This paper describes a consecutive series of 103 patients with HIV and AIDS related illnesses who were referred to, and remained in, the care of two community teams. The characteristics of the patients are outlined and the early experiences of the teams are described. The findings of this study should assist doctors and nurses caring for patients with HIV and AIDS related illnesses in the community, and provide valuable data for service planners.
