This valuable guide shows how hospice can provide compassionate,
palliative care to meet the medical, psychological, and spiritual
needs of persons with AIDS and those who love them; it offers a
detailed discussion of the history and philosophy of hospice care;
the medical challenges and psychological issues involved in the
treatment of AIDS patients during the painful, debilitating final
stages of the disease; and the costs of medical and pain-relieving
care. Hospice is shown to be more attuned to the special needs of
AIDS patients as well as far more cost-effective in most cases than
acute-care hospitals. Patients loved ones, and all advocates of the
rights and dignity of persons with AIDS will find "Among Friends"
an indispensable resource.
