T Fulmer et al. Nurs Clin North Am. 1998 Sep.

Abstract

Geriatric nursing has radically progressed in the past 2 decades, moving from a custodial approach, to one that is anticipatory, evidenced-based, and proactive. This article provides a brief overview on the new thinking that is shaping geriatric nursing practice. Active interventions are discussed within the interdisciplinary mandate.
