Gerontology....Who has or is taking this class soon???

Published

Who's taking it winter 2? Have you gotten your book? Are you buying or renting?

Also, if you have taken it, any advice? :D

I am at 5 pages not including the care plan or title page. Did you guys start the care plan on another page or just continue after the assessment.?

I put in a page break.....don't know if that is right.

Yep...it's no wonder the incidence of suicide is increasing amongst the elderly...this class has really hammered me emotionally.

I must be the only one that like the HBO video. I found it very moving.

Don't get me wrong...it's very good......just makes me feel terrible for those people and their families. Heartbreaking to watch them deteriorate.....

I think they're excellent also...but emotionally draining. I can't say I enjoy them because of the deep sadness I feel.

I was a little "sniffly" during this video until I got to that last one - and then I "bawled my eyes out". These videos are emotionally draining - and I am revisiting losing both of my parents while watching them. I definately do not enjoy them.

I lost both of my parents also...my Mom to suicide related to many of the issues presented in these videos. Really tough stuff for me.
