Margaret Gentry · Answer 1

C) A counseling group.

Explanation:

A counselling group provides full range of counselling and support services.

In the above mentioned scenario, all the persons has got AIDS, so a counselling group is formed which involves a dialogue between the client and the care provider which is aimed at enabling the client to cope with stress and to make personal decisions related to AIDS.

The counselling process basically involves the calculation of the personal threats of HIV transmission and the facilitation of preventive behaviour.

Hence option C) A counselling group is the right option.
