Chapter 1 Seeing Older Adults Through the Eyes of Wellness 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 dimensions of gerontologic nursing practice, or elevate the practice of gerontologic nursing. DIF: Remembering (Knowledge) REF: MCS: 2 OBJ: 1-1 TOP: N/A MSC: Safe and Effective Care Environment 2. The nurse planning care for an older adult who has recently been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis views the priority criterion for continued independence to be the patients: a. age. b. financial status. c. gender. d. functional status. ANS: D Maintaining the functional status of older adults may avert the onset of physical frailty and cognitive impairment, two conditions that increase the likelihood of institutionalization. DIF: Remembering (Knowledge) REF: MCS: 8 OBJ: 1-6 TOP: Nursing Process: Planning MSC: Physiologic Integrity 3. 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. DIF: Applying (Application) REF: N/A OBJ: 1-9 TOP: Teaching-Learning MSC: Safe and Effective Care Environment 4. 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. ANS: C The health and ultimate autonomy of older Americans has been positively impacted by the development of antibiotics, better sanitation, and vaccines. These public health measures have been more instrumental in increasing the numbers of healthy, independent older Americans than have in-home care services, government programs, or life-extending therapies. DIF: Remembering (Knowledge) REF: MCS: 2 OBJ: 3-3 TOP: Nursing Process: Implementation MSC: Health Promotion and Maintenance 5. Based on current data, when presenting an older adults discharge teaching plan, the nurse includes the patients: a. nonrelated caretaker. b. paid caregiver. c. family member. d. intuitional representative. ANS: C Less than 4% of older adults live in a formal health care environment. The majority of the geriatric population lives at home or with family members. DIF: Applying (Application) REF: N/A OBJ: 3-3 TOP: Nursing Process: Planning MSC: Safe and Effective Care Environment 6. A nurse working with the older adult population is most likely to assess a need for a financial social services referral for a(n): a. white male. b. black female. c. Hispanic male. d. Asian American female. ANS: B The poverty rate among older black women is substantially higher than that seen among males or females of other ethnic groups. White males had the least poverty.

1.A nurse is discussing an older adult's recent diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis with a
s s s s s s s s s s s s s




s colleague. Which of the nurse's statements reflects an accurate view of the
s s s s s s s s s s s




srelationshipbetween aging and wellness? s s s s




A) "It's important that the individual knows this is an expected part of growing older."
s s s s s s s s s s s s s




B) "We need to teach the older adult how he can keep living a fruitful life in spite
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s




ofhis diagnosis."

C) "We need to make sure our teaching is not too detailed for someone of his age."
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s




D) "We need to ensure his expectations of continuing to live alone are
s s s s s s s s s s s




realistic."ANSWER: B

Answer B reflects a desire to foster a fulfilling and productive life for the older adult
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s




sdespite his diagnosis, and reflects an understanding of wellness and aging. Option A
s s s s s s s s s s s s




simplies that illness is an inevitability of aging. Option C suggests that older adults have
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s




salimited capacity to learn by virtue of their age, and option D implies pessimism about
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s




sthehealth and functioning of the older adult.
