3. When Attempting To Minimize The Effect Of Ageism On The Practice Of Nursing

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 Older Population As A Whole. With Nurses Being Members Of A Society
Holding Such Views, It Is Critical That The Individual Nurse Self-Reflect On Personal

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.
