Module 06 D – Bias in Healthcare
This paper is about ageism and bias. Reflect on your personal perception of older adults (aged 65 and above). Consider it is your first day at a clinical site, and your preceptor tells you that your client is a 76-year-old female. Does that paint a picture of your day? Do you have different expectations about the physical and cognitive abilities of a 76-year-old client than you would for a 46-year-old client? Do you anticipate having to provide more care for a 76-year-old than for a 46-year-old? If the answer to these questions is yes, then you are not alone.

Many Oreo consumers follow the Twist, Lick, and Dunk practice, which is an example of a food ritual. What other food categories or brands have rituals associated with them?

Mondel?z, the maker of Oreos, has invested heavily in promotional activity designed to help us remember how to eat its cookie, including TV and social media ads.
CS 14-1. What other food categories or brands have rituals associated with them? If you are a participant in one or more of those rituals, do you agree with the study referenced above that this ritual increases your enjoyment of the food?
CS 14-2. Choose a food brand without an apparent ritual and come up with one that could be used in a promotional activity. (No dunking allowed.)
