roles and core competencies of the gerontological nurses

This APA formatted paper assignment consists of your philosophy of gerontological nursing and should entail what you believe to be a good gerontology nurse. In order to do this, the documented discussion should explain some of the following areas: 1) the history behind gerontological nursing; 2) any landmarks that this type of nursing has developed over the past few decades; 3) any definitions that have been developed in this scope of practice with the elderly; 4) roles and core competencies of the gerontological nurses; and 5) any documented research in gerontological nursing that brings evidenced-based practice to light for the elderly. Support your philosophy with at least 2 nursing peer reviewed journal articles no older than 5 years.
