Cognitive Development During Adulthood01:30

Cognitive Development During Adulthood

Cognitive development continues throughout adulthood, undergoing significant shifts across early, middle, and late stages. Individual transition occurs from adolescent idealism to pragmatic and adaptable thinking in early adulthood. During this period, individuals learn to integrate personal beliefs with the recognition that other perspectives are equally valid. Exposure to the complexities of modern society, diverse experiences, and higher education contribute to this adaptive thought process,...

Planning Nursing Care I01:21

Planning Nursing Care I

The planning phase of the nursing process helps nurses set priorities, outline patient-centered goals and expected outcomes, and tailor nursing interventions to align with the aligned care plan. Through the planning phase, the nurse applies critical thinking skills to align and develop interventions according to the patient's needs. It provides continuity of care allowing patients to receive the maximum benefit from treatment. It serves as a pilot plan for allocating individual staff to a...

Planning Nursing Care II

A nursing care plan can present in two forms: informal and formal. Informal is a care plan for the individual use of the nurse and goals they wish to accomplish during their shift. Informal care plans are not included in the patient chart. A formal nursing care plan is a written or computerized guide that organizes patient care. It is further subdivided into two: standardized and individualized care plans. Standardized care plans are pre-populated care plans for specific patient populations,...
Alzheimer's Disease: Treatment01:22

Alzheimer's Disease: Treatment

Alzheimer's Disease (AD), a neurodegenerative disorder, is pathologically identified by amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles composed of tau protein. AD pharmacotherapy aims to manage cognitive symptoms, delay disease progression, and treat behavioral symptoms. The treatment is primarily symptomatic and palliative, with no definitive disease-modifying therapy available. Cholinesterase inhibitors, including donepezil (Aricept), rivastigmine (Exelon), and galantamine (Razadyne), are...

Area of Science:

  • Gerontology
  • Cognitive Neuroscience
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Nonpharmacological lifestyle interventions are key to preventing age-related cognitive decline.
  • Adherence to healthy habits remains a significant challenge for many individuals.
  • The Aging Well through Interaction and Scientific Education - Action Plan (AgeWISE-AP) program combines group education with personalized goal-setting.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To demonstrate the importance of personalized goals in lifestyle change for healthy aging.
  • To showcase individualized strategies developed within the AgeWISE-AP program.
  • To highlight the role of personal values and motivations in achieving health behavior goals.

Main Methods:

  • Veterans (age ≥60, cognitively intact) engaged in eight one-on-one sessions within the AgeWISE-AP program.
  • Participants created and implemented individualized lifestyle goals focused on brain health.
  • Goals were developed using the SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound) framework.

Main Results:

  • Thirty-six participants developed up to four unique SMART goals each, totaling 120 goals across various brain health domains.
  • Case examples illustrated the engagement, goal-setting, and implementation processes.
  • The study generated a diverse set of personalized brain health goals.

Conclusions:

  • Individualized, nonpharmacological interventions focusing on lifestyle goals can promote healthy brain aging.
  • Understanding a participant's "why" (values) and "what" (motivations/interests) is crucial for intervention success.
  • Personalized goal selection enhances engagement and adherence in healthy aging initiatives.
