1.A |nurse |is |discussing |an |older |adult's |recent |diagnosis |of |rheumatoid |arthritis |with |a
colleague. |Which |of |the |nurse's |statements |reflects |an |accurate |view |of |the |relationship
|
between |aging |and |wellness?
|
A) "It's |important |that |the |individual |knows |this |is |an |expected |part |of |growing |older."
B) "We |need |to |teach |the |older |adult |how |he |can |keep |living |a |fruitful |life |in |spite |of|his
diagnosis."
|
C) "We |need |to |make |sure |our |teaching |is |not |too |detailed |for |someone |of |his |age."
D) "We |need |to |ensure |his |expectations |of |continuing |to |live |alone |are |realistic."
ANSWER: B
|
Feedback:
Answer |B |reflects |a |desire |to |foster |a |fulfilling |and |productive |life |for |the |older |adult
despite |his |diagnosis, |and |reflects |an |understanding |of |wellness |and |aging. |Option |A
|
implies |that |illness |is |an |inevitability |of |aging. |Option |C |suggests |that |older |adults |have |a
|
limited |capacity |to |learn |by |virtue |of |their |age, |and |option |D |implies |pessimism |about |the
|
health |and |functioning |of |the |older |adult.

2.A |nurse |is |teaching |an |older |person |about |the |concept |of |successful |aging. |Which |of |the
nurse's |questions |addresses |an |important |contributor |to |successful |aging?
|
A) "Are |you |largely |free |of |acute |or |chronic |illnesses?"
B) "Do |you |feel |financially |secure?"
C) "Do |you |feel |like |you |actively |engage |with |life?"
D) "Do |you |have |a |reliable |support |network?"
ANSWER: C
|
Feedback:
Research |has |indicated |that |an |active |engagement |with |life |is |central |to |successful |and
healthy |aging. |Absence |of |illness, |financial |security, |and |the |nature |of |a |person's |support
|
network |are |not |identified |components |of |successful |aging.
