Influence of the home environment on prevention of mother to child transmission (PMTCT) of HIV/AIDSSewnunan, Asha 28 March 2014 (has links)
This study aimed at exploring the influence of the home environment of women that
were on the prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) programme for
HIV/AIDS. A qualitative descriptive study was conducted to explore the home
environment for the psycho-social support that was available for women on the PMTCT
programme and the influence this had on compliance to the programme. Data collection
was done using a semi-structured interview guide, with a sample size of 14 participants
(n=14). The data was then coded and grouped into categories and major themes.
The findings revealed that the common barriers that prevented full disclosure of an HIV
positive status included stigma and discrimination, fear of social isolation and financial
dependence. A major constraint that affected the women’s full utilisation of the PMTCT
preventative strategies and their adherence to treatment was the poor acceptance of
people living with HIV in the family and community / Health Studies / M.A. (Health Studies)
