Over 1 million people in the US are living with HIV/AIDS.
Since the emergence of the epidemic over 25 years ago, we've
developed new treatments to slow the progression of HIV
infection to AIDS. Better treatments have led to a longer
life expectancy--and better quality of life--for people with
HIV. In this workshop we will talk about precautions to take
to prevent the transmission of HIV as well as the latest
trends in caring for people with HIV/AIDS and new treatments
that are on the horizon. We'll also cover the emotional and
social impactof HIV/AIDS and HIV in older adults. For more
