Care for the Aged: A Coursebook for Nursing Students (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781329895768)

The term "learning" has several connotations in common parlance, but it is important to emphasize that learning is a process, not a product. According to Ambrose, learning is something students do for themselves rather than something they do (2010). In the current situation, the students will embark on a new learning approach to gain knowledge in Geriatric Nursing Care. This will be accomplished by participating in a self-learning chapter. This book covers the fundamental concepts, principles, and standards of working with older adult clients. Gerontology, also known as Geriatric Nursing, is a nursing specialty that focuses on the care of the elderly. Like other nursing specialties, gerontological nursing necessitates an understanding of the physiological changes associated with aging, keen assessment and monitoring skills, extensive knowledge of aging conditions, care implementations, and comprehensive knowledge of established standards and principles of geriatric care. It includes instructional materials that are beneficial to both the instructor and the students to facilitate instruction and learning. The primary goal of this learning material is to serve as a resource for students learning geriatric nursing, assisting them in gaining a comprehensive understanding and skills in dealing with older adult clients.
