Abstract
Legionnaire's disease was first identified and described in January 1977. Even today, it is often regarded as an unusual or exotic disease, when in fact it is a very common form of community and nosocomial acquired pneumonia. The major roles of the acute care nurse, including patient health education; psychosocial needs of the patient; and strategies for disease prevention and control, are discussed.Entities:
