b. accept that this population represents a substantial portion of those requiring nursing
care.
c. self-reflect and formulate one’s personal view of aging and the older patient.
d. recognize ageism as a form of bigotry shared by many Americans.Correct 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 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.
