Book Synopsis Handbook of Economic Evaluation of HIV Prevention Programs by : David R. Holtgrave
Download or read book Handbook of Economic Evaluation of HIV Prevention Programs written by David R. Holtgrave and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If resources for HIV prevention efforts were truly unlimited, then this book would be en tirely unnecessary. In a world with limitless support for HIV prevention activities, one would simply implement all effective (or potentially effective) programs without regard to expense. We would do everything useful to prevent the further spread of the virus that has already claimed hundreds of thousands of lives in the United States and millions of lives worldwide. Unfortunately, funding for HIV prevention programs is limited. Even though the amount of available funding may seem quite large (especially in the United States), it is still fixed and not sufficient to meet all needs for such programs. This was very well illustrated in the summer of 1997 when over 500 community-based organizations applied for a combined total of $18 million of HIV prevention funding from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Less than one-fifth ofthese organizations received support via this funding mechanism. Hence, although $18 million may seem like a large amount of money at first blush, it is not enough to meet all of the prevention needs that could be addressed by these community-based organizations.
Book Synopsis HIV Psychiatry by : James A. Bourgeois
Download or read book HIV Psychiatry written by James A. Bourgeois and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-11-18 with total page 591 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a practical guide in understanding how to prevent HIV transmission, to recognize risk behaviors, and to add something else to their repertoires. It aims to empower clinicians and provide a sense of security and competence with the recognition and understanding of some of the psychiatric illnesses that complicate and perpetuate the HIV pandemic that continue to persist throughout every area of the world despite the magnitude of the progress that has transformed the illness from a rapidly fatal to chronic illness that is no longer life-limiting. Missing in most of the literature on HIV is the subtle, and sometimes not so subtle, contribution of psychiatric symptoms, psychiatric illness, and risk behaviors that drive the pandemic and serve as catalysts for new infections. This practical guide provides state-of-the-art understanding of not only prevention but also a way to recognize risk behaviors, psychiatric symptoms, and psychiatric illnesses that will demystify and decode the sometimes enigmatic and frustrating reasons for nonadherence with diagnostic procedures and life-saving treatments and care. All behaviors and pathology are covered as well as the resources and treatments available. The goal of this text is to refresh knowledge on the current state of psychiatric illness management among people living with HIV, to provide a concise volume on the psychiatric aspects of HIV prevention and treatment that substantially impact the overall care of the patient, and to help understand the psychiatric catalysts of the pandemic Written by experts in the field, HIV Psychiatry: A Practical Guide for Clinicians provides enduring guidance to medical and other professionals caring for complicated clinical patients as they face ongoing challenges in working with persons with HIV and AIDS.

Book Synopsis A HANDBOOK IN HIV/AIDS COUNSELING by : Ramesh K. Deosarran
Download or read book A HANDBOOK IN HIV/AIDS COUNSELING written by Ramesh K. Deosarran and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2008-06 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The AIDS pandemic threatens to kill millions in the next ten years. No one should be silent about speaking to the issue or reading about the complexity of the problem. Dr. Ramesh Deosarran was courageous in his decision to present his readers with both the historical context of the epidemic, as well as the contemporary possibilities of approaches for the Christian community. Churches have the ability to influence the values and actions of not only the congregations, but also wider segments of the community. In this important work Ramesh acknowledges the need for a clearer roadmap for developing effective HIV prevention ministries that are sensitive to the church's cultural values and norms. A healthy embrace of the contents of this book will enable Christians to avoid the strident moralism that is often the prevailing attitude.

Book excerpt: Although efforts have been made and continue to be made to reduce the rate of HIV transmission in the U.S. and globally, the rates continue to increase in the majority of countries.

Download or read book Employers' Handbook on HIV/AIDS written by UNAIDS and published by World Health Organization. This book was released on 2002 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inevitably, HIV/AIDS has taken its toll on workforces, production systems, markets, and local communities. As a result, companies of all types face higher costs in terms of training, insurance benefits, absenteeism and illness.

These include educating employees about HIV/AIDS, promoting changes in attitudes and behavior towards sex, and in some cases, establishing care and treatment programs to treat workers and families. The handbook also provides details of results obtained and lessons learned by employers worldwide.
