Abstract:
Nursing and healthcare professional faculty are challenged to prepare graduates who are comfortable and capable of discussing human sexuality issues and concerns with patients who are victims of family violence, AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases, rape, and abuse, as well as patients who have undergone cardiac surgery and other life-threatening events. The authors recommend using a holistic approach as the basis for teaching strategies.
