ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT Care of the older adult can be complex and influenced by ageism. The purpose of this pilot study was to expose nursing students to older adults earlier in the undergraduate curriculum. This study examined the experiences of student participation in caring for older adults. Qualitative analysis of student logs was conducted. Themes that emerged included age-related changes, environmental considerations, psychosocial needs and changes, consideration of gerontology as a career choice, and existing bias. Early experiences are vital in the curriculum and provide enhanced engagement in gerontology.
