It is unlikely to be HIV. Clostridium Dificile and staph are rampant in nursing homes. You are exposed to them. Htey are highly contagious. They can sit on surfaces and be contagious for days. They can cause this. Stool can be tested for them.

HIV is not contagious without the transmission of visible amounts of live body fluids.
