Abstract:

Abstract Background The NHS Long Term Plan (2019) sets specific targets for multidisciplinary services for frail older people over the next ten years. Delivery and sustainability is crucially dependant on the capability and capacity of gerontological nursing. High cost cities such as London experience high staff vacancy rates in acute care older adult services. Aim The study took a regional approach, working with NHS Trusts to develop a multicomponent intervention to increase retention and competencies of early career nurses working in gerontological services.

Abstract:

The 50th anniversary of the Journal of Gerontological Nursing is a milestone that calls for reflection on the many important contributions made by our clinicians, educators, and researchers to the care of older adults. This article was written to highlight not only the issues that have been the focus of our professional attention but also the accomplishments that gerontological nurses have made during the past half century. Edna Stilwell, the inaugural editor, laid out nine objectives for the journal in the first issue, which was published in 1975. Using those objectives as a lens to our past,

Abstract:

Over thirty years ago geriatric nursing, as it was then called, was at the forefront of nursing research in the United Kingdom. Concurrent with the emergence of geriatric medicine as a distinct speciality, the pioneering study of Doreen Norton and colleagues (Norton et al. 1962) served to highlight both the deficits that existed in the hospital care of older people and the enormous potential of nursing to improve the situation, particularly for the ‘irremediable’ patient (Norton 1965). Caring for those who could not be cured but required on-going support was seen to constitute ‘true nursing’ a

Abstract:

Ageism, gerontological nursing and healthcare contexts Professors Kathleen Hunter and Sherry Dahlke from the University of Alberta’s Faculty of Nursing explain why gerontological nursing education is key to addressing the unconscious negative stereotypes about ageing and improving care for older adults. Ageism is worldwide and is apparent in healthcare professions and health systems. (1) This is partly due to healthcare systems, particularly hospitals, that are institutionally ageist because they are designed for younger people with one acute condition rather than the majority of users who are

Abstract:

Deprescribing is a common practice in the care of older adults, including those living in nursing homes (NHs). Deprescribing represents an individualized approach to optimizing medication use; it considers the risks, benefits, and goals of an individual, and can mitigate the effects of polypharmacy and potentially inappropriate medications. In NH settings, prescribing practices are shaped directly and indirectly by historical and contemporaneous policies at federal, state, and local levels, which have primarily targeted chemical restraints and unnecessary medications.
