Gerontology nursing is a specialized branch focusing on the health of older adults from different walks of life, like hospices, nursing homes, residences, and clinics. The primary role of gerontological nurses is to diagnose, assess, treat, and prevent age-related mental and physical conditions such as infections, dementia, and chronic diseases in adults. They advocate for the rights and preferences of older individuals and promote healthy aging.
