摘要
Older people, including those with dementia who those who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, or intersex (LGBTI), have experienced, and continue to experience stigma, discrimination, and prejudice in long-term care services. While sharing my work journey, the range of education, research, and policy in Australia aimed at improving understanding and attitudes, increasing acceptance, and supporting the expression of sexuality by older people in long-term care is discussed. This article also reflects on what is needed to develop better sexuality policy and practice guidelines in Australia.
