Although the human [[foreskin]] is naturally provided with numerous [[Immunological and protective function of the foreskin| immunological and protective functions]], normal, [[intact]] elderly men may require regular care by healthcare professionals, if they have become incapacitated by advancing age or because of dementia. These [[foreskinned]] men may be likely to reside in a home for the elderly. Some care providers have expressed concern that they do not have guidance on the care of [[intact]] elderly men, who still have a [[foreskin]] and a [[preputial sac]], but may no longer be able to care for themselves.
