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




ncorporates the input of gerontologic nurses from across the United States. It was not intended to
ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap




promote gerontologic nursing practice within acute care settings, define concepts or dimensions
ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap




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, a
ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap




nurse needs to first: ap ap ap




a. recognize that nurses must act as advocates for aging patients. ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap




b. accept that this population represents a substantial portion of those requiring
ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap



nursing care. ap




c. self-reflect and formulate ones personal view of aging and the older patient.
ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap




d. recognize ageism as a form of bigotry shared by many Americans. ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap




ANS: C ap

, Ageism is an ever- ap ap ap




increasing prejudicial view of the effects of the aging process and of the older population as a who
ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap




le. With nurses being members of a society holding such views, it is critical that the individual nu
ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap




rse self-
ap




reflect on personal feelings and determine whether such feelings will affect the nursing care that
ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap




he or she provides to the aging patient. Acting as an advocate is an important nursing role in all se
ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap




ttings. Simply accepting a fact does not help end ageism, nor does recognizing ageism as a form o
ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap




f bigotry.

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




Americans, the nurse includes the importance of: ap ap ap ap ap ap




a. increased availability of in-home care services. ap ap ap ap ap




b. government support of retired citizens. ap ap ap ap




c. effective antibiotic therapies. ap ap




d. the development of life-extending therapies.
ap ap ap ap




ANS: C ap




The health and ultimate autonomy of older Americans has been positively impacted by the devel
ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap




opment of antibiotics, better sanitation, and vaccines. These public health measures have been m
ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap




ore instrumental in increasing the numbers of healthy, independent older Americans than have in-
ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap ap




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