ANS: C f f


Ageism is an ever- ff ff ff


increasing prejudicial view of the effects of the aging process and of the older
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff


population as a whole. With nurses being members of a society holding such views, it is
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff


critical that the individual nurse self-
ff ff ff ff ff ff


reflects on personal feelings and determines whether such feelings will affect the nursing
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff


care that he or she provides to the aging patient. Acting as an advocate is an important
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff


nu rsing role in all settings. Simply accepting a fact does not help end ageism, nor
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff


does reco gnizing ageism as a formmof bigotry.
