MULTIPLE CHOICE |!


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 gerontologic nursing. |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!


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 intended to
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!


promote gerontologic nursing practice within acute care settings, define concepts or
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!

2. When attempting to minimize the effect of ageism on the practice of nursing older adults, a
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!


nurse 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 requiring nursing 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 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.

3. When discussing factors that have helped to increase the number of healthy, independent older
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!


Americans, the nurse includes the importance of:
|! |! |! |! |! |! |!



a. increased availability of in-home care services. |! |! |! |! |!



b. government support of retired citizens. |! |! |! |!



c. effective antibiotic therapies. |! |!



d. the development of life-extending therapies.
