Methods: It is a field research, qualitative and descriptive study, held from April to July 2013, with a targeted audience of the 151 students of the undergraduate nursing course in a public educational institution located in northwest of Paraná State, Brazil. Data were obtained through semi-structured questionnaire and submitted to thematic content analysis. Results: The students have reduced perceptions of sexuality, focusing on aspects of genitality, with insubstantial training in this issue during graduation. Conclusion: The incorporation of the sexuality theme in the academic context is necessary for progress towards comprehensive care, requiring training leading to appropriate and contextualized assistance.Descriptors: Academic Education, Nursing Practice, Human Sexuality.

Nursing students’ perception of training on human sexuality

“…Similarly to what was found in other Brazilian studies (Nogueira et al, 2017;Rezende & Sobral, 2016), which identified a lack of nursing studies and discussions about sexuality both in academic settings and in professional practice, this study revealed accounts of shame and insecurity when it comes to the topic of sexuality. These expressions are explained by a lack of knowledge about the topic, which, in turn, is associated with the limited discussion of this topic in education experiences.…”

“…Consequently, instead of acting as facilitators, most professionals disregard the need to intervene. These professionals often act as (iatrogenic) destructive agents due to prejudice, ignorance, and the need to impose values (Nogueira, Rodrigues, Labegalini, Lopes & Baldissera, 2017). The integration of the sexuality topic into the context of nursing care should include the various aspects of the complexity that influences our lives.…”

Saúde da população LGBTQIA+ na formação de enfermeiros em instituições públicas brasileiras

“…4 The biomedical vision of fragmentation of the human, which focuses only on pathologies, is still incorporated into nursing practices, especially in the area of sexuality, and directly interferes, making it difficult to promote health for users when there is difficulty in approaching the subject. 8 Therefore , the lower demand for health services from this public may be associated with discrimination and/or the unpreparedness of professionals to deal with sexual diversity. 9 Therefore, the lack of understanding by the nursing professional category about nonheterosexual sexuality can negatively impact quality and care, allowing the provision of care that does not encompass culturally sensitive care in all life cycles.…”
