Today in class we were discussing urinary elimination and someone brought up sexual intercourse as a risk factor for a urinary tract infection. The patient we were discussing happened to be a 78 year old woman, and my professor made a priceless comment."Just because there is snow on the roof, doesn't mean that there isn't a fire in the furnace." I think it's good to remember sometimes that everyone is a sexual being. Even though we may want to pretend that some people just don't do that, they probably do. During CNA training, we were taught what to do if we found nursing home residents having sex. Give them privacy. I hope that someday when I am old, people will remember to give me privacy.
