AB Legal issues involving human immunodeficiency virus are consuming an
increasing amount of the attention of hospitals and nurse
administrators. At times, the legal interests of patients, staff, and
administrators conflict, and it is the duty of healthcare administrators
to determine which interests should prevail. Recently, two courts have
dealt with this problem. In a previous article (JONA October 1995), the
author discussed the first case, which involved antidiscrimination
versus workplace safety. In this article, the author discusses the
second case, which also involves issues of antidiscrimination and
workplace safety, but with a decidedly different twist. She identifies
the legal dilemma and suggests ways in which nurse administrators can
recognize and reconcile such conflicts.
