As the U.S. population ages, there is an increasing demand for healthcare professionals specializing in gerontology. Geriatric nurses dedicate their time to caring for the 16.5% of U.S. residents aged 65 and older. Older adults have unique needs and require a gentle touch when navigating the healthcare system. With people living longer due to advancements in medical care, the demand for skilled geriatric nurses will continue to grow. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts a 7% job growth for this field between now and 2029. Gerontological nursing is an evidence-based specialty that addresses the unique physiological, social, psychological, developmental, economic, cultural, spiritual, and advocacy needs of older adults. The nursing practice focuses on the aging process and the protection, promotion, restoration, and optimization of health and generalized functions; prevention of illness and injury; facilitation of healing; alleviation of suffering through the diagnosis and treatment of human responses; and advocacy in the care of older adults, caregivers, families, groups, communities, and populations.
