| contents | Nurses and home-based caregivers in the United Republic of Tanzania: a dis-continuum of care Ruth Meena Home-based care (particularly by non-household caregivers) has been presented as a way to lighten the HIV/AIDS care burden on families in the United Republic of Tanzania. It is also meant to reduce the pressure on the country’s formal health facilities, which are collapsing under the care demands imposed by the pandemic as well as severe resource constraints. The work of home-based caregivers falls between unpaid and professional work on the “care continuum” – a continuum which in Tanzania suffers from gaps caused by weak referral systems, an overburdened professional health cadre, and serious staff shortages. 10.1111/j.1564-913X.2010.00102.x DOI https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1564-913X.2010.00102.x publication.journalArticle |
