,Chapter 1 Seeing Older Adults Through the Eyes of Wellness
1. In 2010, the revised Standards and Scope of Gerontological Nursing Practice was
published.The nurse would use these standards to:
a. promote the practice of gerontologic nursing within the acute care setting.
b. define the concepts and dimensions of gerontologic nursing practice.
c. elevate the practice of gerontologic nursing.
d. incorporate suggested interventions from others who practice
gerontologicnursing.
ANS: D
The current publishing of the Standards and Scope of Gerontological Nursing Practice in 2010
incorporates the input of gerontologic nurses from across the United States. It was not
intendedto promote gerontologic nursing practice within acute care settings, define concepts
or dimensions of gerontologic nursing practice, or elevate the practice of gerontologic nursing.

2. When attempting to minimize the effect of ageism on the practice of nursing older adults,
anurse needs to first:
a. recognize that nurses must act as advocates for aging patients.
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.
ANS: 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.

olderAmericans, the nurse includes the importance of:

ANS: C
The health and ultimate autonomy of older Americans has been positively impacted by the

been more instrumental in increasing the numbers of healthy, independent older Americans
thanhave in-home care services, government programs, or life-extending therapies.
