“…Black[6] suggests that stoma formation usually has a negative impact on a person's QoL and affects life styles in a number of ways. Baxter and Salter[7] identify ways in which nurses can help stoma patients come to terms with their diagnosis and prognosis, adapting to life with a stoma, teaching practical skills in caring for their stoma and addressing issues around family support networks, employment, body image, and sexuality.

“…Most specialist stoma nurses are Clinical Nurse Specialists (Baxter & Salter 2000) who are differentiated from generalist nurses by the additional skills and areas of practice that involves greater responsibility, accountability and autonomy for broader aspects of the management of specialized care (Daly & Carnwell 2003, p.162). In Bamford and Gibson's (2000) focus group study, Clinical Nurse Specialists perceived the key elements of their role as being able to focus on a clearly defined area of clinical practice and having nursing experience combined with an educational underpinning.…”

The purpose of this paper is to explore the use of the PLISSIT model as an alternative tool for the assessment of sexual problems of patients with a stoma in nursing practice. The facts affecting the sexual life of people with a stoma, the methods for solving these problems and the use of the PLISSIT model by nurses in order to address these problems were reviewed. Results highlight the benefit of the PLISSIT model in solving the sexual problems of people with various diseases. People with a stoma can encounter sexual problems. However, nurses experience some difficulties while addressing sexual problems. The literature review suggests that use of the PLISSIT model and guiding model based interventions for sexual problems should be necessary during the care of the nurse to establish the role of education and consultation.
