2. When Attempting To Minimize The Effect Of Ageism On The Practice Of Nursing Older
Adults, ANurse Needs To First:

b. Accept That This Population Represents A Substantial Portion Of Those
RequiringNursing Care.
c. Self-Reflect And Formulate Ones Personal View Of Aging And The Older Patient.
d. Recognize Ageism As A Form Of Bigotry Shared By Many Americans.


ANSWER: C

, Ageism Is An Ever-Increasing Prejudicial View Of The Effects Of The Aging Process And Of
The OlderPopulation As A Whole. With Nurses Being Members Of A Society Holding Such
Views, It Is Critical That The Individual Nurse Self-Reflect On Personal Feelings And
Determine Whether Such Feelings Will Affect The Nursing Care That He Or She Provides To
The Aging Patient. Acting As An Advocate Is An Important Nursing Role In All Settings.
Simply Accepting A Fact Does Not Help End Ageism, Nor Does Recognizing Ageism As A
Form Of Bigotry.
