Nurses remain a vital part of the response to HIV and viral hepatitis but are often left out of educational programmes. These 2-day meetings will bring together nurses for skills building, practical course to improve their ability to care for patients in their varied settings. For language issues, we have found that specific in-country training with simultaneous translation reaches the most nurses.

This Nurestri meeting was held in Sofia, Bulgaria with nurses that had expertise with infectious diseases but not specifically HIV & Hepatitis C. We covered a wide range of subjects including the latest treatments, drug interactions, adherence, stigma and better patient interaction.

About 36 nurses attended the two-day meeting.

“All speakers were very experienced & knowledgeable. They have had various cases on their hands and presented quite interesting real-life cases.”
