Question

Sherry is in her mid-eighties and is moving to a nursing home. She is used to getting up at 5 o'clock each morning and making breakfast for herself. Her new roommate likes to sleep until 7 o'clock and breakfast is not served at the nursing home until 8 o'clock. What is Sherry most likely to experience through this transition?a. A shift in her desire to enjoy life.b. A shift in her reading habits.c. Resocialization.d. A complete and permanent loss of herself.

Answer 1

Sherry will experience C. Resocialization.

Step-by-step explanation:

Resocialization means having one's aspects in life re-engineered. An individual who was used to a certain lifestyle must adhere to a new set of norms.

For example; Sherry has to reintegrate into the new community; whereas her routine of getting up at 5 o'clock to make herself breakfast will no longer be plausible, since someone will do it for her at a later hour.
