Aim: This study aimed to explore the experiences of hospitalised patients with Covid-19 in terms of the meeting of their comfort needs and the source of discomfort during isolation precautions.
Design: Qualitative descriptive phenomenological approach was applied in this study.
Methods: There were 16 hospitalised patients with Covid-19 and 11 nurses who were thoroughly interviewed.
A crucial factor in the success of treatment for patients with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is adherence to antiretroviral (ARV) therapy among People Living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA). Adherence issues remain a persisting problem with multifaceted causes. There are many studies on variables related to ARV therapy adherence, but no study has been found on spiritual well-being and distress tolerance in ARV therapy adherence.

Non-adherence to ART can have far-reaching implications for patient well-being, particularly in increasing the risk of opportunistic infections when medication is not taken as prescribed.
Objective: This study aimed to develop a theoretical model that explains how PLWH in Indonesia adhere to their ART regimen and the strategies they follow to maintain adherence.
