Abstract:
This paper presents an educational model that follows the General Systems approach and illustrates the advancement of gerontological nursing education in Canada. The model's primary focus is placed on baccalaureate education, the mandate of the nursing discipline group. The paper also touches briefly on Masters and Doctoral education. Implications for use of this model in nursing education are then linked to nursing care of the elderly.
