Feedback:
Indulging in reminiscence, reflecting on the past events and decisions, and being comfortable with them are proposed by Erikson. The nurse should encourage the client to adjust to the inevitable physical and social changes, but this is not part of Erikson's theory. Knowledge regarding the normal aging process helps the client to understand and adapt to these changes.
