About this title

Synopsis

People Living with HIV/AIDS require significant care and support. However, health facility based-care for people living with HIV/AIDS continues to pose many challenges including high costs, inadequate physical facilities, equipment and health personnel. This has led to a paradigm shift that culminated in the emergence of Community Home-Based Care services. This book thus, examines the effectiveness of Community Home Based Care Programmes as an alternative approach for people living with HIV/AIDS.
