In this episode, we dive into the world of gerontological nursing with a focus on professional growth and impactful practice. Join us as we explore how nurses are making a difference through the cross-campus Geriatric Resource Nurse (GRN) Council, championing best practices in the care of older adults. We discuss the vital role of delirium recognition and management in improving outcomes for hospitalized elders, and break down what it takes to pursue gerontological nursing certification. Whether you're new to geriatrics or looking to deepen your expertise, this episode offers inspiration and practical tips for advancing your practice and advocacy in the care of older adults.
