“…The understanding by the professionals that these therapeutic and technical actions can reinforce negative feelings in their patients corroborates the importance of a humanized care, which is not impositive, but rather empowering. (15,16) The configuration of health services and policies in Brazil focused on PLWHA allows for few changes that fit the specific needs of this population, and this involves changes in the therapy regimen, service time options, influence of socio-cultural factors that take the patient away from the service (in the case of the LGBT population), and bring losses in various aspects of their quality of life. European countries that have invested in this flexibility already show better rates of life expectancy and quality of life in PLWHA.…”

Objective: To identify and explore the dimensions of the difficulties faced by people living with HIV/Aids in the disease management. Methods: A qualitative, descriptive, exploratory study was developed in Specialized Care Services, with 26 patients. The recorded interviews were transcribed, and then processed and analyzed by means of descending hierarchical classification. Findings were based on the collective subject discourse. Results: Five classes were obtained: "Intrafamilial prejudice and its impact on coping with the disease"; "Social prejudice: macro environment impacts"; "Difficulties in managing the risk of HIV/Aids transmission and its implications on partnerships", "Maintenance of high rates of HIV/ Aids treatment adherence: qualifying the service" and "Quality of life promotion for people living with HIV/Aids". Conclusion: The difficulties experienced go far beyond the disease, with central, intimate aspects, and are linked to prejudice, which hinders their personal, professional and affective development, expanding into abstract macro-concepts such as quality of life.

“…Among the priorities listed by the Declaration of Melbourne (1) and the Brazilian Ministry of Health, measures and actions to fight the illness in its different manifestations and expressions must be strengthened in order to focus on the most vulnerable populations, including women and people deprived of freedom (2) . Among women, it is estimated that HIV infection is more prevalent in the context of prison (3) .…”

OBJECTIVE To graspthe AIDS social representations built by freedom-deprived women. METHOD Descriptive study with a quali-quantitative approach that involved 174 convicted women in a women's prison in a capital city of the Brazilian northeastern region. Aword-association test was applied in October and November 2014, using AIDS as a stimulus. The corpuswas processed usingIramuteq software. Descending Hierarchical Classification and Correspondence Factor Analysis were applied. RESULTS The content that comprises the social representation of AIDS was influenced by the prison context, which was pervaded by a lack of assistance, lack of knowledge, discrimination, and suffering that disclosed vulnerability to HIV/AIDS factors such as unprotected sex and object sharing. This underlines the stigma and fear of the illness, in addition to favoring and supporting negative feelings and a sense of rejection. CONCLUSION To consider the use of this representational amalgam to ensure a comprehensive, contextualized care can help redirect practices, motivate self-care practices, and reduce prejudiced attitudes.

Objective: to understand the process of caring for the person with HIV/AIDS in the Primary Health Care of a capital in southern Brazil. Method: qualitative, exploratory and descriptive research, carried out in the Health Centers of this city, from March to August 2015. Sixteen nurses participated through semi-structured interviews, which were organized and codified with the help of the software QSR Nvivo®, version 10. Afterwards, the data were analyzed through comparative analysis. Results: results were described in two categories: “The inter-subjective encounter given the vulnerability to HIV/AIDS”, and, “Accepting needs and formulating actions given the reality”. Potentialities and weaknesses were evidenced through these categories, such as: reception, long-term care, active search, home visits, and, in return, lacking a formal flow of care for people living with HIV/ AIDS, lack of HIV/AIDS line of care and medical/centered care. Conclusion: the need to implement HIV/AIDS management in primary care was verified, as well as to overcome the fragilities in this care with the aid of implementing a formal care flow, establishing managerial processes and permanent education for the professionals. Then, expanding and qualifying care in HIV/AIDS, with important contributions of the nurse in the perspective of integral care in the process of living with HIV/AIDS.
