How would you provide emotional and physical support <strong>to</strong> a person living with<br />
<strong>HIV</strong>/<strong>AIDS</strong><br />
b. Main Activity: (30 mins) Home Based Care<br />
Say, “People who have developed <strong>AIDS</strong> are very sick. It is better for them <strong>to</strong> be<br />
cared for at home. Home Based Care is important because in PNG care is<br />
traditionally given in the home. As the epidemic has developed the health system is<br />
also struggling <strong>to</strong> developing services <strong>to</strong> help support the needs <strong>of</strong> someone living<br />
with <strong>HIV</strong>/<strong>AIDS</strong>. People cared for at home are healthier, happier and live longer. It is<br />
better than being isolated in hospital. Home carers are not at risk <strong>of</strong> <strong>HIV</strong>.”<br />
i) In groups <strong>of</strong> four students discuss and give feedback.<br />
What do you see as benefits <strong>of</strong> a person living with <strong>HIV</strong> getting care at home<br />
rather than at the Heath Centre or Hospital<br />
c. Conclusion: (15 mins)<br />
What are the disadvantages <strong>of</strong> Home Based Care<br />
Ask students individually <strong>to</strong> design a poster with 10 tips for Home Based Care using<br />
the Resource Book. These will be displayed in the next lesson.<br />
