This text covers gerontologic concepts and issues, health promotion and common medical-surgical problems associated with this population group. Divided into seven parts, each chapter follows a consistent pedagogical organization, including learning objectives, emergency boxes, patient and family teaching boxes, research boxes, key points and special insights. Fundamental aging theories are highlighted, providing a basis for the biological and psychological aspects of quality nursing care. The text also provides coverage of assessment by identifying normal age-related changes and explaining deviations from normal and abnormal findings.
