Therefore, the nurse needs to intervene when the student tells the older adults that they are not at risk for developing an STI. Avoiding the use of alcohol; using pillows; taking pain medications before having intercourse if needed; and communicating thoughts, fears, and feelings about sex all enhance sexual functioning. 3.A nurse is interviewing a woman who uses a diaphragm.
