We sought to identify and understand the health care needs of young people living with HIV/AIDS, particularly in terms of their psychosocial well-being. We conducted a qualitative analysis of HIV-positive young people and their caregivers, focusing on the implications of an HIV diagnosis for health care needs. Stigma was a recurrent issue that arose in the interviews conducted with the respondents, and it was evident that youths had been denied many rights related to health. We concluded that young people living with HIV need comprehensive care based on a human rights approach. In this regard, we offer some practical recommendations for health programs.
我们试图确定并了解感染艾滋病毒/艾滋病的年轻人的医疗保健需求,特别是在他们的心理社会福祉方面。我们对艾滋病毒呈阳性的年轻人及其照顾者进行了定性分析,重点关注艾滋病毒诊断对医疗保健需求的影响。耻辱感是在与受访者进行的访谈中反复出现的问题,很明显,年轻人被剥夺了许多与健康相关的权利。我们得出结论,感染艾滋病毒的年轻人需要基于人权方法的全面护理。在这方面,我们为健康项目提供了一些实际建议。
