According to Gilbert et al. (2011), there has been a trend with an increased rate of herpes simplex type 1-related genital herpes infections. This may be related to oral-genital transmission from oral sex, and then spread to others by genital contact. This type of genital herpes is more common in young adult females. Therefore, nurses and care providers should pay particular attention to young adult females and their increased risk of contracting genital herpes from oral sex (Gilbert el al., 2011).
Overall, the care provider should correct the student nurse and her judgmental comments, for sexually transmitted diseases and infections are detrimental in so many ways to the human condition. Compassion is certainly warranted in this setting
