AAPT Blood Borne Virus Survey



AAPT are working with the HSE, National AIDS Trust (NAT) and other stakeholders to revise the guidelines regarding health and safety in the mortuary and handling of the deceased.

NAT are keen to find out how much APTs know about HIV and what working practices are currently in place across the UK. The questions are a mixture of knowledge about the disease and also how practices regarding HIV positive deceased vary.

The first three questions will ensure we have a range of responses from across the profession. The questions about HIV and its prevalence are ones which you may not know the answers to but please give your best guess based on your knowledge of HIV.

Answers are anonymous and the results will be published on the website.

Deadline: Friday 12th July
