Some gerontologic changes the nurse should take care of while assessing the older adult patient are c. Decreased gag reflex, d. The increased presence of collagen in alveolar walls, e. Decreased presence of mucus. So our correct options are Options c, d, and e.

  • Gerontology is the scientific study of old age, the ageing process, and the unique issues that older people face.
  • Gerontology's goal is to improve the quality of life by reducing the effects of age-related illnesses and ailments, not prolonging them. The special requirements of older persons, which vary depending on a person's ethnicity, gender, and health, are promoted by gerontologists.
