Abstract
Attitudes regarding sexuality and older people is a relatively under-researched area, despite its topical relevance as people live longer, remain healthy, and are better educated and well informed. The first part of the literature review examines the attitudes different age groups have about sexuality and old people. The second part describes the existing literature, which has investigated the attitudes of health professionals, in particular doctors and nurses. The last part discusses current knowledge regarding attitudes of staff from nursing and residential homes regarding sexuality and old age.
