About the Book

This very first book helps nurses and healthcare practitioners working in the field of HIV care across European to have practical examples of how they could improve/ adapt their services to improve outcomes for people living with HIV. It provides the reader with both knowledge on a variety of different HIV related topic areas and also helps them to translate this learning into a clinical setting.

The main focus of the book is to share best practice in HIV nursing, with the aim of providing a practical guide from multiple countries to improve outcomes for people living with HIV. The book also acts as a resource to healthcare practitioners who are interested in working in many places in the world or carrying out research in HIV care.


About the Author:

Since beginning her nursing career, Dr. Michelle Croston has been passionate about providing care for people living with HIV. This led her to join the team at North Manchester General Hospital's Infectious Diseases Unit. During this time she gained a diverse range of experiences providing care in an evolving disease area, this has ranged from delivering palliative care to long-term chronic disease management. Her research studies to date have focused on how nurses elicit patients concerns in order to provide person-centered care, how nurses facilitate shared decision-making within HIV care and the effectiveness of person-centred communication training for HIV nurses. She has also led a project involving a national multidisciplinary team, which developed and then evaluated the effectiveness of using a holistic assessment tool within routine HIV care, in order to make consultations patient-centered. In 2011, Dr. Croston joined the National HIV Nurses Association (NHIVA) and, in 2013, was elected as Chair of the Association. During this time, she worked on national initiatives to improve care for people living with HIV and has collaborated with numerous national HIV organisations to raise standards of care. Alongside her national role, she is also an Executive Member of the European HIV Nurse Network (EHNN) and has been involved in developing their educational conferences. This work has led her to be part of the faculty for the International Providers of AIDS Care (IAPAC) electronic educational resource.

His areas of interest include HIV and TB stigma, sexual and reproductive health rights, cultural determinants of HIV prevention, and advocacy for HIV treatment access.

Most recently (2020) he has been working on the final evaluation of a large project in Mozambique focusing on maximizing LGBT access to HIV prevention and health services. In 2018 he led a mid-term review of a large HIV advocacy programme focusing on key populations in nine countries in Africa and Asia.
