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. ACCURATE ANSWER: 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.

Americans, the nurse includes the importance of:

c. effective antibiotic therapies.

ACCURATE ANSWER: C
Fr




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

a




in increasing the numbers of healthy, independent older Americans than have in-home care services,
nk




government programs, or life-extending therapies.
