Family physicians should be prepared to care for the increasing number of patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and those who have acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Strategies are needed to help practicing physicians become more competent in the medical care of patients with HIV infection and AIDS. This article introduces three forms that can serve as templates for the physician to use in evaluating and managing patients with HIV infection. These forms incorporate current recommendations for monitoring patients and cue the physician to consider specific prevention strategies.
