Chapter 1 Seeing Older Adults Through the Eyes of Wellness
1. In 2010, the revised Standards and Scope of Gerontological Nursing Practice was published.

M

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

2. When attempting to minimize the effect of ageism on the practice of nursing older adults, a
nurse needs to first:
IS
a. recognize that nurses must act as advocates for aging patients.
b. accept that this population represents a substantial portion of those requiring
nursing care.
SE
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
U
R
Med 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 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
M
does recognizing ageism as a form of bigotry.

Americans, the nurse includes the importance of:

ANS: C
O
The health and ultimate autonomy of older Americans has been positively impacted by the
development of antibiotics, better sanitation, and vaccines. These public health measures have
been more instrumental in increasing the numbers of healthy, independent older Americans than

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