This booklet, prepared by the World Health Organization's Regional office for the Western Pacific, seeks to provide nurses with the information and tools required to organize nursing services to meet the needs resulting from HIV infection and the AIDS epidemic. Nurse managers and nurse educators must become active participants in health policy formulation and planning to organize a framework for the prevention and control of HIV. This publication first outlines the World Health Organization's Global AIDS Strategy and suggested national activities. It then delineates guidelines for the development of a nursing component in national AIDS prevention and control programs. These include formation of a nursing task force, policy formulation, situation analysis, initial needs assessment, and program evaluation. Also presented is a chart containing evaluation indicators for the nursing program. This is the second in a series of booklets that comprise the HIV/AIDS Reference Library for Nurses.

With insightful discussion of program evaluation and the efforts of the Centers for Disease Control, this book presents a set of clear-cut recommendations to help ensure that the substantial resources devoted to the fight against AIDS will be used most effectively. This expanded edition of Evaluating AIDS Prevention Programs covers evaluation strategies and outcome measurements, including a realistic review of the factors that make evaluation of AIDS programs particularly difficult. Randomized field experiments are examined, focusing on the use of alternative treatments rather than placebo controls. The book also reviews nonexperimental techniques, including a critical examination of evaluation methods that are observational rather than experimentalâ€"a necessity when randomized experiments are infeasible.
