Leben. Lieben. Altern.: Umgang mit Sexualität und Demenz
by Groen, Sofie C.
Everyone loves being young and dynamic, when there are no physical boundaries impeding one’s love life and one can live one’s sexuality to the fullest. But when happens when sexuality changes throughout and the years and, for instance, dementia starts to interfere? This book deals with this topic, which is still being tabooed by society. Considering demographic change, the topic can no longer be ignored, as it is complicated to deal with sexuality and dementia in the right way. This book evaluates the corresponding issues in an in/patient environment and gives insight into challenges the participants face. Experts as well as nursing staff, relatives and all interested readers will gain a lot of new knowledge concerning sexuality, aging, and dementia. Furthermore, accounts from affected people afford the reader access to the experience of age/related changes to sexuality.
