Progress and Changes in Gerontological Nursing Research in the Midwest: A Review
Abstract:
Gerontological nursing has a rich research history. The current article reports trends in gerontological nursing research found through review of abstracts of presentations at the Midwest Nursing Research Society annual conference at 10-year increments over the 40-year existence of the organization. Researchers studied a wide range of topics, from quality of life to use of technology, with a variety of older adult populations represented. Designs, theoretical frameworks, and other methods mirrored trends in nursing research from 1977 to 2017. Gerontological nursing researchers had a strong and sustained presence in the Midwest, as evidenced by these abstracts. [Res Gerontol Nurs. 2018; 11(5):231-237.].
