Ch 7

Instructions:

Several years ago, I worked on a project with faculty from the Philadelphia College and some industry representatives called the “ACE project”. This stood for Advancing Care Excellence and was a project concerned with the care of elders in the U.S. To get a better idea of what it was all about please read the following excerpt:

Advancing Care Excellence (ACE)-S (senior):

 

Individualized Aging

Complexity of Care

Vulnerability During Transitions

 

The three variables of individualized aging, complexity of care and vulnerability during transitions are critical for care for the geriatrician. Meeting the needs of the elderly and providing the care that is really essential to their wellbeing. A nurse needs to know that each person is different, an individual with individual needs. An elder presents oftentimes with complex needs due to their conditions and syndromes of growing older that are part of the aging process or just a part of their medical history. As elders they are susceptible to periods of life where change becomes overwhelming but necessary. The nurse can be an important tool to serve the elderly patient making these periods easier with knowledgeable assistance.

The Advancing Care Excellence or ACE is a way to view the elder in a better light with knowledge about their life challenges and the individual ways they have found to adapt. When confronted with the issues of aging an elder finds the adaptations necessary to live their life in the most productive way. A nurse cannot treat the individual that does not have the tools yet to adapt to these challenges of aging without a personal knowledge to share with the elder patient.

Years later the National League for Nursing decided to put the entire project online. The next assignment is concerning the characters that were developed to exemplify the challenges that the elderly face in today’s society.
