Instructional
Exemplars
We welcome additions to this site.
Please use the template to summarize your teaching activity.
Please include a narrative that provides sufficient detail
so that faculty who might be unfamiliar with geriatric nursing
could easily adapt it for use in their courses.
For more information or to submit your
exemplar, please contact Penny
Roberts.
Instructional Exemplars have
been developed by NW Coalition gerontological nursing faculty.
They are for use in courses that are relevant for care of
older adults, including family nursing, med/surg, assessment,
