  • Title: Health care workers' AIDS attitudes and willingness to provide care--India.
    Author: Fusilier MR, Durlabhji S.
    Journal: J Health Hum Serv Adm; 1997; 20(2):145-58. PubMed ID: 10177075.
    Abstract:
    Although AIDS is a world-wide pandemic, relatively little has been published on health care workers' attitudes and intentions to provide AIDS care outside of the U.S. This is a critical omission concerning countries such as India which is predicted to have tremendous increases in AIDS cases. Such information is important for health care administrators attempting to cope with disease transmission on a global level. The present research explored Indian health care workers' attitudes, knowledge, and willingness to provide AIDS care. A majority of those in the sample indicated a willingness to care for patients with AIDS. These intentions, however, were not predicted by health care workers' attitudes or knowledge of the disease.
