The lived experiences of older Aboriginal peoples aging with Human Immunodeficiency Virus
FY 2015-16
Summary
Aging with HIV and AIDS is a relatively new phenomenon, it is recognized as presenting a number of unique health challenges to those experiencing it as well as to the health care professionals treating it. Further research is needed to better understand Aboriginal people's lived experiences so that we can work towards effective, culturally appropriate strategies which can help facilitate positive aging amongst Aboriginal seniors and those already living with HIV and AIDS.
