Abstract
The purpose of this qualitative study was to understand the impact of HAART on the lives of HIV seropositive men and women. The data demonstrate that the demands of these treatments are substantial, but that renewed health and hope for the future due to the implementation of HAART often overshadows the stress of the treatments on the physical, emotional and social well-being of the individuals. Practitioners should be keenly aware of the struggles faced by those on HAART, and provide multidimensional support to assure maximum effectiveness of these treatments in light of the realities of their clients' lives.Entities:
