| Annotation | The authors revisit the case studies presented in their previous article, and make clear some of the recommendations to best practice in this complex area. That article was based on their presentation at the workshop, 'The last taboo: a guide to dementia, sexuality and sexual behaviour in care homes' (ILC-UK, 2011) held at the 4th Scottish Caring and Dementia Congress in March 2012. The case studies demonstrate practice in relation to: attitudes; capacity; ethical dilemmas; risk assessment and management; the care home environment; and communication. (RH). |
