Event Details
Keep on Rockin’: Sexuality and Aging was the 5th in a series of cutting-edge fall symposia presented by the Canadian Research Network for Care in the Community (CRNCC) in partnership with the Ontario Community Support Association (OCSA). Leading experts from Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the U.S.A tackled critical issues regarding this very relevant and timely topic.
Why sexuality and aging?
Sexuality applies to all of us regardless of age. It includes romance, sensuality, companionship, relationships, sexual identity, sexual orientation, intimacy, as well as quality of life.
It’s also about ethics, risk, consent, privacy, professional roles and obligations, and facility design. Besides rethinking how we view aging, it also means rethinking how we design and deliver client-centred care.
