    Area of Science:

    • Gerontology
    • Nursing Education

    Background:

    • The level of knowledge about aging among nursing students is crucial for effective elder care.
    • Negative stereotypes about aging can impact the quality of care provided to older adults.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To explore the impact of a planned learning experience on BScN students' knowledge of aging.
    • To assess the effectiveness of direct contact with well elderly individuals in modifying student perceptions.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized Palmore's 'Facts on Aging Quiz' to measure knowledge levels before and after the intervention.
    • The learning experience involved planned, direct contact with independent, well older adults.

    Main Results:

    • Students demonstrated a significant increase in their knowledge about aging post-intervention.
    • The planned experience was effective in reducing negative stereotypes associated with the aged population.

    Conclusions:

    • Interventions involving direct, planned interaction with healthy older adults are effective in enhancing nursing students' understanding of aging.
    • Educational strategies should incorporate experiential learning to combat ageism in future healthcare professionals.
