Abstract

The ever-growing numbers of persons living with HIV/AIDS emphasizes the need for highly trained healthcare professionals to care for this population. Understanding why nursing and medical students would choose HIV services for clinical rotations, and the impact of those clinical experiences on their future professional practice, is key to recruiting healthcare providers to care for this population.
