Copy AIDS is a virus that affects the immunity system-it makes the body vulnerable to deadly infections. In Arabic it has been known as the destitution of human immunity. In Sudan the number of cases reached 9000 cases. The first case was registered in 1986. AIDS as all diseases, is a deadly spread able disease, which pushed the countries to control this disease with all their capacities. Thus seminars were held and experiments were formed and the national day of AIDS was created. Sudan represented by the ministry of health has worked on reinforcing psychological orientation between the client and guider. A group of guiders has been chosen. The experiment still needs time before it's effectiveness appears. AIDS patient needs psychological support. Therefore academic habilitation, increase of orientation, presenting studies and comparisons were a must, in order to get positive results, to control the disease and to eliminate it.
