Overview

Current research points to ageism as disparaging the value of older adults and stereotyping them as a burden to society. Ageism has in the recent past, negatively influenced decisions regarding older adult client’s access to screenings and certain diagnostic procedure. Acceptance of ageism by health care providers, society and clients themselves can lead to ineffective assessment and treatment of mental and physical illness.

Nurses are integral to challenging ageism stereotypes and promoting healthy aging. The largest demographics of clients nurses will care for over the next 50 years will be older than 65. With extended life expectancy there is a need for enhanced quality of life. Promotion of successful aging requires healthy aging attitudes.
