The Impact of AIDS on School Health Services

Abstract:
[Archived] The article discusses the impact AIDS can have on school health services. The school nurse plays a critical role in this area. The nurse may be called upon to recommend, review or write school policies, procedures, or guidelines; is responsible for delivering health services; may be responsible for teaching about HIV to staff and/or students; and is in the position to need to know about an HIV-infected student. The legal implications, public relations aspects, and moral issues are also addressed.
