Annotation | Examines the rationale for a four-week life experience placement for nursing students developed at the school of community and health sciences at the City University, London. The authors describe how students' perceptions of old age were challenged by listening to an older person's life history and observing older people in groups and in the community. Nursing student Daniel Fitzpatrick reflects on his experience of undertaking the placement in relation to his own feelings and expectations of old age. (JL). |
