This introductory text takes a holistic and humanistic approach toward the care for the ageing adult. Organized into five sections, the content combines theory and practice into a realistic portrayal of geriatric nursing. The book presents the biological and psychosocial theories of ageing; provides students with normal anatomy and physiology and the common progression of ageing before explaining the disease process; explores biological and psychosocial theories of ageing, to dispel myths about older adults; examines trends and issues related to economic, social, cultural and family influences that may impact healthy ageing; presents a holistic approach to nursing care by organizing assessment, diagnoses, and interventions with functional health patterns; and numerous study aids include learning objectives, procedures, assessment tools, sample care plans and a glossary.
