Fiction Versus Reality: Nursing Image as Portrayed by Nursing Career Novels
The idea that care home residents have no interest in sex and intimacy is not uncommon but their needs, and how best to meet them, must be recognised. This article comes with a handout for a journal club discussion. Discussing sexuality and intimacy with older people can be problematic, so it is not uncommon that their needs go unrecognised. This article identifies barriers to addressing sexuality and intimacy needs, and outlines some simple strategies to raise awareness of them among older care home residents and staff, thereby facilitating a discussion to enable such needs to be met.

Nurse representation has important real-world consequences.
It was intended as a high-minded and scholarly piece of research, an investigation into how disadvantaged people could be encouraged to look after their health.
