摘要
Outcomes of care improve when older patients are cared for by nurses with demonstrated competence in geriatrics and in environments that structure nursing care around the needs of older adults. The past twenty years has seen the development of a number of exciting new nursing models in the delivery of care for older adults. This article highlights some of these evolving models of nursing practice in assisted living, home care, hospitals, and nursing homes.
