Abstract:
Preexisting supplies of a local public health office and other institutions are taken into account in developing main activities of an AIDS-counsellor within the AIDS-programme at public health offices in Western Germany. School education and individual AIDS counselling are predominant. Sexology at schools in Bavaria is restricted by the education privilege of parents and ethical principles supported by the catholic church. Further activities for domestic nursing personnel and medical doctors were introduced successfully. The controversy of epidemic hygiene predominating over psychological counselling is discussed. Efficacy of working at schools and future developing topics are discussed.
