Health Medical Homework Help

I’m working on a nursing discussion question and need a sample draft to help me learn.

DQ: Ageism is a concept introduced decades ago and is defined as “the prejudices and stereotypes that are applied to older people sheerly on the basis of their age…” (Butler, Lewis, & Sutherland, 1991).

• What are some common misconceptions you have heard or believed about older adults?
• What can you do to dispel these myths?

For all DQs: Please abide by APA 7th edition format in your writing. Answers should be 2-3 Paragraphs made up of 3-4 sentences each, at least 250 words (more or less) in length.

AND, please use your assigned textbook as, at least, one reference, or 10 points will be deducted.
