This class was my Older Adult class where we discussed the care of older adults. For my honors enhancement, I partnered up with two of my other classmates and we conduced a project regarding the effect of COVID-19 on the elderly population, specifically within the Woodlands Nursing Home in Farmville, VA. This class broadened my horizon on the care of older adults. While I was not against working with this population, it has never been something I really wanted to do, but now after having takin this class, I am more open to the idea of doing so. This project connect current events with necessary knowledge allowing me to see what I have learned first hand. In class, we always talk about how important certain things are to the elderly such as socialization, but this project really emphasized that. I am glad that I not only have the knowledge that this class has taught me, but also the drive to keep learning about the effects on the elderly population post COVID-19.
