abstract="The author's purpose was to explore the health concerns of women with HIV/AIDS. Eleven HIV-positive women were interviewed using the Omaha System to organize the interview data for content analysis. Data were classified into environmental, health-behavioral, physiological, and psychosocial concerns. Comparisons of the African-American and white women presented more similarities than differences, except for noncompliance with zidovudine therapy. Implications of this study for health professionals include the need to identify support systems for women with HIV/AIDS, to identify ways to encourage women to focus on their own health, to assess for depression and suicide risk, and to refer to appropriate community resources in a timely fashion.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
