Chapter 1 Seeing Older Adults Through the Eyes of Wellness
io io io io io io io io io

1. In 2010, the revised Standards and Scope of Gerontological Nursing Practice was published.
io io io io io io io io io io io io

io The nurse would use these standards to:
io io io io io io

a. promote the practice of gerontologic nursing within the acute care setting.
io io io io io io io io io io

b. define the concepts and dimensions of gerontologic nursing practice.
io io io io io io io io

c. elevate the practice of gerontologic nursing.
io io io io io

d. incorporate suggested interventions from others who practice gerontologic io io io io io io io

ANS: D io

The current publishing of the Standards and Scope of Gerontological Nursing Practice in 2010
io io io io io io io io io io io io io

io incorporates the input of gerontologic nurses from across the United States. It was not intended
io io io io io io io io io io io io io io

io to promote gerontologic nursing practice within acute care settings, define concepts or
io io io io io io io io io io io

io dimensions of gerontologic nursing practice, or elevate the practice of gerontologic nursing.

2. The nurse planning care for an older adult who has recently been diagnosed with rheumatoid
io io io io io io io io io io io io io io

io arthritis views the priority criterion for continued independence to be the patients:
io io io io io io io io io io io

a. age.
b. financial status. io

c. gender.
d. functional status. io

ANS: D io

Maintaining the functional status of older adults may avert the onset of physical frailty and
io io io io io io io io io io io io io io

io cognitive impairment, two conditions that increase the likelihood of institutionalization.

3. When attempting to minimize the effect of ageism on the practice of nursing older adults, a
io io io io io io io io io io io io io io io

io nurse needs to first:
io io io

a. recognize that nurses must act as advocates for aging patients. io io io io io io io io io

b. accept that this population represents a substantial portion of those requiring
io io io io io io io io io io

nursing care.
io io

c. self-reflect and formulate ones personal view of aging and the older patient. io io io io io io io io io io io

d. recognize ageism as a form of bigotry shared by many Americans. io io io io io io io io io io

ANS: C io

Ageism is an ever-increasing prejudicial view of the effects of the aging process and of the older
io io io io io io io io io io io io io io io io

io population as a whole. With nurses being members of a society holding such views, it is
io io io io io io io io io io io io io io io

io critical that the individual nurse self-reflect on personal feelings and determine whether such
io io io io io io io io io io io io

io feelings will affect the nursing care that he or she provides to the aging patient. Acting as an
io io io io io io io io io io io io io io io io io

io advocate is an important nursing role in all settings. Simply accepting a fact does not help end
io io io io io io io io io io io io io io io io

io ageism, nor does recognizing ageism as a form of bigotry.

4. When discussing factors that have helped to increase the number of healthy, independent older
io io io io io io io io io io io io io

io Americans, the nurse includes the importance of: io io io io io io

a. increased availability of in-home care services. io io io io io

b. government support of retired citizens. io io io io

c. effective antibiotic therapies. io io

d. the development of life-extending therapies.
io io io io

ANS: C io

The health and ultimate autonomy of older Americans has been positively impacted by the
io io io io io io io io io io io io io

io development of antibiotics, better sanitation, and vaccines. These public health measures have
io io io io io io io io io io io

io been more instrumental in increasing the numbers of healthy, independent older Americans than
io io io io io io io io io io io io

io have in-home care services, government programs, or life-extending therapies.

5. Based on current data, when presenting an older adults discharge teaching plan, the nurse
io io io io io io io io io io io io io

io includes the patients: io io

a. nonrelated caretaker. io

b. paid caregiver. io

c. family member. io

d. intuitional representative. io

ANS: C io

Less than 4% of older adults live in a formal health care environment. The majority of the
io io io io io io io io io io io io io io io io

io geriatric population lives at home or with family members.
