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.
尽管艾滋病是一种全球大流行病，但在美国以外地区，关于医护人员提供艾滋病护理的态度和意愿的报道相对较少。对于印度这样预计艾滋病病例会大幅增加的国家来说，这是一个严重的遗漏。这些信息对于试图在全球层面应对疾病传播的医疗保健管理人员来说非常重要。本研究探讨了印度医护人员对提供艾滋病护理的态度、知识和意愿。样本中的大多数人表示愿意照顾艾滋病患者。然而，这些意愿并非由医护人员对该疾病的态度或知识所预测。
