HIV Nurse retires after 36 years helping patients

Available for over a year

Simon Corcos, a nurse at Bradford Teaching Hospitals' HIV Clinic, began his career at Middlesex Hospital in London in the late 1980s when there was no treatment for the disease. But over the past four decades he has seen a transformation in outcomes for patients with HIV - from what he describes as a "death sentence to a normal healthy life expectancy". He spoke to David Dixon about his experiences in HIV care. Image Credit: Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust
