People living with HIV in U.S. nursing homes in the fourth decade of the epidemic.
This study described the sociodemographic characteristics as well as the antiretroviral therapy treatment and physical and mental health among Medicare-eligible persons living with HIV (PLWH) in nursing homes (NHs). Of the newer admissions, results showed that they were older, had higher prevalence of viral hepatitis and anemia, but had less pneumonia and dementia. NH nurses can better anticipate health care needs of PLWH using these health profiles, understanding that there have been changes in the health of PLWH at admission over time.
