Three major trends are driving the widespread need for continuing education in AIDS. First, with the spread of AIDS, increasing numbers of health care professionals are becoming involved in the care and treatment of AIDS, ARC and HIV positive individuals. Second, as the disease spreads beyond current AIDS epicenters, more persons with minimal information are required to have a baseline working knowledge of AIDS. Finally, the reluctance of many health care professionals to care for HIV-positive individuals, along with already existing staff shortages, limits access to care and makes the provision of responsive educational programs even more important. Generic programs to educate health professionals frequently lack sufficient specificity and sensitivity to address the needs of health professionals with varying levels of knowledge and role responsibility. This paper briefly summarizes the literature on the similarities and differences in knowledge and attitudes across and within professional groups. In addition, it presents specific research designed to provide initial direction for considering the circumstances under which health professionals, particularly nurses and physicians, may or may not profit from generic programs aimed at mixed levels and types of health care provider. 相似文献

In this study, the authors examine the worry and discomfort experienced by direct care health professionals in treating AIDS patients and how their profession, attitudes, knowledge, experience and demographic characteristics influence their emotional reaction to those patients. The research focuses on experienced emotion as distinct from expressed emotion, as an important factor in explaining health behaviors among professionals. To address these issues 536 health care professionals comprising 132 physicians, 378 nurses and 26 social workers employed at a University teaching hospital in Chicago were surveyed. The findings suggest that health care workers' emotional reactions to HIV depend on the type of patient interaction. We found for all three professions, as the invasiveness of contact increased, the level of worry and amount of discomfort also increased. Nurses however, on the whole were the most adversely affected by their patient contacts. We conclude that emotional reactions in the workplace cannot be explained by cognitions, beliefs and attitudes alone. This study suggests that work roles, work assignments, and professional authority contribute to emotional reactions to patients with AIDS. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to test the effects of an education program in Tanzania designed to reduce children's risk of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and to improve their tolerance of and care for people with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). METHODS: A randomized controlled community trial including baseline and 12-month follow-up surveys was employed. Public primary schools in the Arusha and Kilimanjaro regions of Tanzania were stratified according to location and randomly assigned to intervention (n = 6) or comparison (n = 12) conditions. Of the 1063 sixth-grade students (average age: 13.6 years) who participated at baseline, 814 participated in the follow-up survey. RESULTS: At follow-up, statistically significant effects favoring the intervention group were observed for exposure to AIDS information and communication, AIDS knowledge, attitudes toward people with AIDS, and subjective norms and behavioral intentions toward having sexual intercourse. A consistent positive but nonsignificant trend was seen for attitudes toward having sexual intercourse and for initiation of sexual intercourse during the previous year (7% vs 17%). CONCLUSIONS: It is feasible and effective to train local teachers and health workers to provide HIV/AIDS education to Tanzanian primary school children. 相似文献

Knowledge and attitudes of AIDS health care providers before and after education programs 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Analysis of the responses of 1,247 health care providers to questionnaires immediately before and after educational programs on acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) revealed significant (P less than .05) improvements in accuracy of knowledge about 7 of 15 modes of transmission and 7 of 11 means of infection control. Sizeable percentages, however, continued to believe after the programs that AIDS could be transmitted by casual contact, such as sharing coffee cups. Provider attitudes about caring for persons with AIDS shifted in the direction desired (P less than .001) on six of nine questions. After programs, 92 percent believed that they had sufficient knowledge to protect themselves from getting AIDS, and 79 percent felt professionally competent to care for a person with AIDS. Both before and after programs, providers who established regulations for the care of persons with AIDS and outpatient care providers had the most accurate knowledge and felt most comfortable with persons with AIDS, while inpatient care providers had the least accurate knowledge and felt least comfortable. A 1-month followup of 159 providers revealed that postprogram changes in knowledge and attitudes were largely retained. Results point to the need for education at all levels of the health care system, to a persistent gap in knowledge and attitudes between those persons who establish regulations and those who carry them out, and to the possibility of creating significant changes through education. 相似文献

BACKGROUND. We examined the relationship between workplace AIDS education efforts and workers' knowledge about HIV transmission and their attitudes toward coworkers with AIDS. METHODS. Questionnaires were mailed to corporate and public service workers at 12 work sites to ascertain the extent of their knowledge about AIDS and their attitudes toward coworkers with AIDS. Each work site had offered an AIDS education program. The average response rate was 40%; 3460 workers returned questionnaires. RESULTS. Respondents' knowledge was largely consistent with available scientific evidence. However, a substantial minority still believe HIV infection can be transmitted through casual contact. Over 30% endorse the screening of new employees for AIDS, and 23% would fear contagion from an infected coworker. Thirty percent of the respondents expressed skepticism about the veracity of information from government sources and the scientific community. Work site comparisons show that where educational programs are minimal, employees know less about HIV transmission and hold more negative attitudes. CONCLUSION. Comprehensive workplace AIDS education programs can reinforce workers' knowledge about HIV transmission, thereby fostering more favorable views toward coworkers with AIDS. 相似文献

ABSTRACT: The AIDS epidemic has spread to rural areas of the United States. Conservative rural communities are facing the challenge of having children with HIV entering school. School nurses, as the only health care providers in the schools, are in a strong position to facilitate the education of children with HIV and to provide AIDS education to students, faculty, and parents. School nurses' knowledge and attitudes about AIDS and people with AIDS influence their effectiveness in prevention activities and care of HIV-infected children. This study examined the relationship between specific demographic, practice, and cultural variables and rural school nurses' attitudes about AIDS and homosexuality. Sixty-nine school nurses responded to a mailed questionnaire as part of a larger study of rural nurses. Results indicate attitudes about homosexuality were related to nurses' homosexual knowledge and religious beliefs while attitudes about AIDS were related to nurses' willingness to care for people with AIDS and feeling prepared to do so.(J Sch Health. 1997;67(8):341–347) 相似文献

Thirty-six educational programs on AIDS for 1047 massachusetts health care providers were evaluated by pre-and post-program questionnaires. Providers' knowledge about modes of transmission and means of preventing transmission were ascertained, as were professional and personal attitudes about persons with AIDS. Providers included 149 who established regulations, 345 supervisors, 468 inpatient care and 85 outpatient care providers. Results suggest 1. a need for provider education; and 2. significant differences among the four groups in knowledge and attitudes, both before and after programs, with regulators having the most accurate knowledge and inpatient care providers the least. Suggestions are made for development of effective education to prevent AIDS among caregivers and to prevent the emotional injuries associated with being an AIDS patient. 相似文献

We report results of a seven-year prospective cohort study of physicians' attitudes about and intentions to provide 27 preventive care services in their future practices. Respondents in the cohort were surveyed three times: first, during orientation to medical school; second, during their third year of medical school; and finally, following completion of their third-year of residency training. The majority of preventive care services were viewed as more important to clinical practice in primary care than in non-primary care specialties. Positive attitudes toward preventive care services generally persisted among both primary and non-primary care physicians. Respondents expressed only fair to medium levels of confidence in the ability of physicians in their specialty areas to provide any of the preventive services examined. Respondents reported low levels of confidence in the ability of primary care physicians to provide nutritional counseling, though they ranked it as important. Respondents were fairly or moderately confident in the ability of primary care physicians to provide counseling about smoking cessation, health, AIDS education, and substance abuse. Participants ranked smoking cessation counseling, health counseling, AIDS education, cancer detection education, and substance abuse counseling and education as very important. In general, physicians were less likely to plan on providing preventive services than they were to expect their residency programs to prepare most or all to provide the services. Findings document the need to prepare physicians better to provide preventive services. 相似文献

In order to improve educational programmes directed at health care workers we investigated their knowledge, attitudes and practices in relation to HIV/AIDS.An anonymous self-administered questionnaires was distributed to 609 health care workers. Of these, 59.6% agreed to participate (42.4% of the medical doctors, 74.3% of the nurses and 79.6% of the laboratory technicians, health visitors and other health care workers).All studied groups believed that their knowledge of HIV modes of transmission (84.3%) was sufficient. In contrast, a relatively small percentage reported knowledge of the clinical spectrum of HIV infection (48.8%) and the diagnostic assays (57.6%). Nearly all the study participants believe (92.8%) that there is a risk of acquiring HIV infection during the hospitalization of HIV/AIDS patients. Obligatory screening of all patients was reported by nearly all participants (90.6%) as a chance to minimize their occupational risk.Although health care workers reported satisfactory knowledge of safety measures (87.0%), only 56.7% used gloves and 38.8% accept the hospitalization of HIV/AIDS patients.In spite of the educational programmes for AIDS in Greece, this study demonstrates that health professionals' knowledge and precautionary measures are not sufficient. As a result, a small percentage of them treat AIDS patients without discrimination. There is an urgent need to implement specific educational programmes for health professionals so that they will safely provide high quality care to people affected by HIV/AIDS.Corresponding author. 相似文献

The present study analyses the effectiveness of AIDS volunteers in mitigating the stigma attached to People With AIDS (PWAs) within the context of developing community-based care (CBC) in Thailand. A total of 86 trained village health volunteers (T-VHVs) and 99 non-trained village health volunteers (N-VHVs) were enrolled in the study. In addition, 58 villagers in the T-VHV's intervention area and 72 villagers in the non-intervention area were also enrolled. Both T-VHVs and N-VHVs as well as villagers were assessed to determine their level of knowledge with respect to HIV/AIDS and attitudes toward PWAs. Furthermore, we also determined the village health volunteers' level of activity in distributing knowledge of HIV/AIDS in order to prevent and reduce stigma in the community. Although T-VHVs showed a greater depth of knowledge of HIV/AIDS than N-VHVs (p < 0.05), positive attitudes toward PWAs and the level of practice of village health volunteers did not differ significantly between T-VHVs and N-VHVs. While the level of health knowledge of villagers did not differ significantly between the T-VHV's intervention and control areas, a significant difference was observed between the two areas in terms of the villagers' attitudes towards PWAs (p < 0.01). Villagers in the intervention area attached less stigma to PWAs; therefore, T-VHVs played a role in providing basic information on AIDS to the villagers and in mitigating the stigma attached to PWAs. However, these volunteers need to undergo further training through a well-organized training programme in order to obtain a greater depth of knowledge. This is essential for the development of community-based care for PWAs. 相似文献

Primary care physicians play an increasingly important role in the care of persons with HIV/AIDS due to the rising number and changing geographic distribution of persons infected with HIV/AIDS. The study explored the relationship between barriers to health services and the experience and willingness of primary care physicians to care for persons with HIV/AIDS. The study was based on a random survey of primary care physicians in South Carolina. The results indicate that although primary care physicians' willingness to treat persons with HIV/AIDS is significantly associated with many self-reported barriers (i.e., financial, structural, knowledge, and attitudinal), their HIV/AID care experience was most significantly correlated with self-reported knowledge that overrides financial and structural barriers. The results emphasize the importance of programs and policy initiatives aimed at enhancing the primary care physicians' knowledge level and improving their attitudes related to HIV/AIDS. 相似文献

Studies of health care providers' attitudes have revealed that many have misconceptions and fears about AIDS and possess negative attitudes about caring for people with the disease. Merely transmitting the basic facts about AIDS is insufficient to prepare health care workers to deal with AIDS patients. This article discusses the need for continuing education for health care professionals and educators and offers a model for the development of educational programs. The model is being developed in the School of Allied Health Professions, State University of New York at Stony Brook. Principles of "andragogy"--involvement of both the learner and the educator in identifying students' needs, planning learning experiences, and ongoing evaluation of the learning process--are discussed. 相似文献

This study examined home health care workers' attitudes toward the elderly and their elderly clients. Data were collected from a convenience sample of 106 home health care workers in South Central Florida in October 1994, using the Attitudes Toward the Elderly Questionnaire (ATE). Estimated internal consistency reliability of the scale was .60, using Cronbach's alpha. Findings suggest that home health care workers have positive attitudes toward the elderly, their elderly clients, and provide a reasonable level of service for them. Also, findings suggest that overall the attitudes and perceptions among urban and rural home health care workers are similar. 相似文献
