Sexuality and the older woman.
The nurse has a responsibility to be informed of the sexual needs of older patients and the physiological changes due to aging. Through education of the patient, family and other health care personnel, the nurse can do much to change their knowledge about sexuality in the older woman (Steinke, 1988), and encourage a healthy perspective and sexuality.
