Article of the month: May 2016

The website committee selected the publication of Wiskerke et al. as publication of the month. The paper discusses a rather new theme: how to deal with new relationships or sexual intimacy of persons with dementia whilst still married to another person? Results of qualitative interviews with relatives and staff are discussed.
