g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
g g arthritis with a colleague. Which of the nurse's statements reflects an
g g g g g g gg gg gg g g gg gg gg
g g accurate view of the relationship between aging and wellness?
gg gg gg gg nn g g g g g g
A) "It's important that the individual knows this is an expected part of
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
g g growing older." gg
B) "We need to teach the older adult how he can keep living a
gg g g gg gg gg gg g g gg gg g g gg gg
gg 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

Feedback:
Answer B reflects a desire to foster a fulfilling and productive life
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
g g for the older adult despite his diagnosis, and reflects an
g g g g gg g g g g g g g g g g g g
g g understanding of wellness and aging. Option A implies that illness
g g g g g g g g gg g g g g g g g g
g g is an inevitability of aging. Option C suggests that older adults
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g gg g g
g g have alimited capacity to learn by virtue of their age, and option
g g g g gg g g g g gg g g g g g g g g g g
g g D implies pessimism about thehealth and functioning of the older
gg g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
g g adult.
