Product Information

Responding to the sexual desires of older adults in residential environments is widely recognized as a challenge by care staff, administrators, and family members. This resource meets the challenge head on, exploring the issues surrounding sexual expression from all perspectives. It address the question of how, in an increasingly person-centered care culture, long-term care facilities balance individual resident rights against the needs and concerns of the community as a whole. Who decides what is appropriate or inappropriate, and how? The first book to take a person-centered approach to resident sexuality in long-term care, this ground-breaking training tools represents sexual expression as a significant part of personality, explains why it is important to honor longings for intimacy, and provides strategies for teaching staff how to effectively, respectfully, and compassionately acknowledge those needs. It will enlighten anyone who believes sexuality vanishes with age and offers solutions for navigating this highly charged issue. Informative, engaging, and instructive, this helpful resource builds upon case studies that illustrate potential issues surrounding resident sexuality in various long-term care settings. Each scenario creates opportunities for health discussion about how the staff handled the situation, what was done well and what wasn't, and how to improve the outcomes. Throughout the book, best care practices for supporting resident sexuality are validated by research. Long-term care administrators, nurses, social workers, counselors, direct care staff, ombudsmen, and others devoted to enhancing the quality of life in nursing homes will find answers to pressing questions surrounding sexuality, including What is normal sexual expression in old age? How does dementia affect sexuality? What triggers inappropriate behaviors, and how can they be addressed and prevented? What constitutes consent and/or competence? How can lack of privacy be minimized in long-term care environments? What concerns do LGBT residents bring to a long-term care community? How can residents be protected from sexually transmitted diseases? What do policies regarding sexual expression convey about a community's commitment to resident quality of life? Valuable tools for staff training are included, such as reproducible handouts and group learning activities that encourage staff and managers to explore attitudes and biases about resident sexuality and to help organizations develop policies related to this fundamental need. Important take-away points are highlighted and sidebars offer effective solutions to common dilemmas surrounding sexuality in long-term care settings. Place your order today and increase your sensitivity, awareness, and confidence in addressing an important dimension of resident life in the field of elder care. 2012 National Mature Media Award (Merit Award Winner) 2012

For all the innuendos and images surrounding sex in our society, it's a topic that many long-term caregivers are reluctant to bring up with residents and their family members.Sexuality is far more than being about sex, or as Freud might have put it, sometimes a cigar isn't just a cigar. As Gayle Doll explains in her new book, "Sexuality & Long-Term Care: Understanding and Supporting the Needs of Older Adults," sexuality encompasses many aspects of a resident's life. This includes the desire for companionship and intimacy, the need for privacy, and holding onto one's identity."Unfortunately, the only time many long-term care facilities address sexuality is when there is a 'problem,'" writes Peggy Brick, the president of the Sexuality and Aging Consortium at Widener University, in her introduction to Doll's book.That can mean anything from public inappropriate behaviors to an adult child flipping out upon finding a parent has a new girlfriend or boyfriend.So what can long-term care staff do to mitigate problems yet help residents still enjoy all parts of their lives? That's what is great about Doll's book: Rather than an academic treatise, "Sexuality & Long-Term Care" is a workbook, with activities and questions designed to help managers lead staff in creating a positive environment. Those questions can be basic, such as, "Does your organization have policies, which include consequences, to deal with employee or client complaints of discrimination or harassment, and is there a follow-up process?"Other activities and self-assessments will open up sticky psychological wickets for staff based on one's personal values and background. How does a staff member handle a resident viewing pornography, same-sex residents holding hands, or a dementia patient falling in love? Doll doesn't provide the answers, but she does provide a framework for respecting resident's sexual needs while protecting him or her from harm.If you've been down this road and have thoughts to share, please leave them in the comments below. To sweeten the deal, a commenter will be chosen at random to receive a copy of Doll's book.
