A questionnaire was completed by 197 nurses working in AIDS care facilities to examine the experiences and attitudes of AIDS nursing staff. Correlations (Pearson r) showed a statistically significant relationship between personal death-related experience and death anxiety and attitudes toward dying patients. CNAs reported higher death anxiety scores and rated the negative aspects of caring for dying patients higher than did licensed practical nurses and registered nurses. The evidence supports the development of appropriate training and support programs in death and dying issues that are tailored to meet the needs of different levels of nursing staff in AIDS care facilities.
一份问卷由197名在艾滋病护理机构工作的护士填写，以调查艾滋病护理人员的经历和态度。相关性分析（Pearson r）显示，个人与死亡相关的经历与死亡焦虑以及对临终患者的态度之间存在统计学上的显著关系。护理助理报告的死亡焦虑得分更高，并且对护理临终患者的负面方面的评分高于执业护士和注册护士。证据支持针对艾滋病护理机构中不同层级护理人员的需求，制定关于死亡和临终问题的适当培训和支持项目。
