HIV/AIDS Prevention Using a Medicine Wheel
I have decided to use the medicine wheel to develop the appropriate interventions
to prevent or reduce the risk of a fourteen year old female from contracting
HIV/AIDS.
The medicine wheel is one of great tool to identify appropriate interventions and
provide wholistic approach. Medicine wheel can cover four aspects Physical,
Mental%,Emotional , Spiritual .
Physical

of health care and limited access to healthcare providers prevent seeking help ,
consultation . Lake of supply and preventing methods condoms, limited access to
necessary hygiene supplies, unsecured proper nutrition.%
Gender-based violence and intimate partner violence
Mental
Lack of knowledge and education about way of transmission
Emotional
Lake of family supports, social supports, confidence.

The believe of sugar daddy sex due to poverty
