How did gerontology nursing emerge in the experience (When did I see it or note its absence? How did or should I or some else use it?)

What gerontological nursing (e.g. disciplinary, intellectual, professional) skills did I use/should I have used when obtaining information from a older adult about medication use, health history and diet.In what ways did I think from the gerontological nurse’s perspective and what were the results?

In what ways are my understanding of gerontological nursing or a skill and the experience the same and in what specific ways are they different? What are the possible reasons for the difference(s) (e.g. bias, assumptions, lack of information on my part or on the part of the community)?
