In the early days of the AIDS epidemic in the 1980s, nurses played a crucial role in caring for patients and forever transformed health care.
Cliff Morrison, the nurse who launched the country's first inpatient AIDS unit in 1983, and Carol Dawson-Rose, an early leader in international patient-centered AIDS prevention and care, share their experiences about providing care at the height of the AIDS crisis — and what nurses today should do to be strong advocates.
The guest host for this episode is Mark Tungol, a student in the school’s Adult Gerontology Clinical Nurse Specialist specialty.
