ANS: C f




Ageism is an ever- f f f




increasing prejudicial view of the effects of the aging process and of the older population as af f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f




whole. With nurses being members of a society holding such views, it is critical that the in dividual
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f




nurse self-
f f




reflects on personal feelings and determines whether such feelings will affect the nursing car e that
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f




he or she provides to the aging patient. Acting as an advocate is an important nursing r ole in all
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f w f f f f




settings. Simply accepting a fact does not help end ageism, nor does recognizing ag eism as a form
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f




of bigotry.
